Leviticus
Chapters 21-27
21[1-6] Yahweh said to Moses, “Tell the priests, the sons of Aaron, 'A priest won’t make themselves unfit for those who die among the people; except for their near relatives because a mother, father, son, daughter, brother, and woman who’s never had sex sister who’s near to them, who’s had no husband; for her they may make themselves unfit. Don’t let them make themselves unfit, being a leader among the people, to bring disrespect on themselves. They won’t cut their hair, nor cut off the ends of their beards, nor make any cuttings in their skin. They’ll be holy to their God, and not bring disrespect on the name of their God; for they offer the offerings of Yahweh made by fire, the bread of their God; so they’ll be holy.
[7-15] They won’t marry a woman who’s a prostitute, or unfit; nor will they marry a woman divorced from her husband because they’re holy to God. So you’ll set them apart because they offer the bread of God. They’ll be holy to you because I Yahweh, who sets you apart, am holy. If a daughter of any priest brings disrespect on herself by acting like a prostitute, she brings disrespect on her father, so she’ll be burned with fire. Whoever is the high priest among them, on whose head the anointing oil is poured, and that’s been dedicated to put on the clothes, won’t let the hair of their head hang loose, nor tear their clothes in mourning; nor go in to see any dead body, nor make themselves unfit for their father, or mother; nor go out of the place of worship, nor bring disrespect on the place of worship of God; for the crown of the anointing oil of God is on them. I am Yahweh. They’ll take a wife who’s never had sex. Don’t let them marry a death survivor, or a divorced woman, or a woman who’s unfit, or a prostitute: but let them take a woman who’s never had sex from their own people as a wife. Don’t let them bring disrespect on their children among the people because I am Yahweh who sets them apart.’”
[16-24] Yahweh told Moses, “Say to Aaron, 'None of your children throughout their generations who has a fault, may come to offer the bread of your God. Whoever has a fault, don’t let them come near, whether blind, or lame, or whoever has a scarred face, or any unusual growth, or someone who has a broken leg or hand, or hunchbacked, or a midget, or one who’s cross eyed, or has an itching disease, or scabs, or who has something wrong with his testicles; No one of the people of Aaron the priest, who has a fault, will come to offer the offerings of Yahweh made by fire. Since they have a fault, don’t let them come to offer the bread of God. They’ll eat the bread of God, both of the most holy, and of the holy, but don’t let them go behind the veil, nor come near the altar, because they have a fault; so that they won’t bring disrespect on My places of worship, for I am Yahweh who sets them apart.'” So Moses told Aaron, and his sons, and all the people of Israel.
22[1-3] Yahweh told Moses, “Tell Aaron and his sons to separate themselves from the holy things of the people of Israel, and not to bring disrespect on My holy name by what they dedicate to Me. I am Yahweh. Tell them, 'If anyone of all your children throughout your generations comes to the holy things, which the people of Israel offer to Yahweh, being unfit, that soul will be cut off from Me. I am Yahweh.
[4-8] Don’t let any of the people of Aaron who is a leper or has a flow from a sexually transmitted disease eat of the holy things, until they’re fit. Whoever touches anything that’s made unfit by the dead, or someone whose semen goes from them; or whoever touches any small animal that runs around that makes them unfit, or touches someone else who makes them unfit, whatever unfitness they have; the person that touches any such thing won’t be fit until evening, and won’t eat of the holy things, until they take a bath. When the sun is down, they’ll be fit; and then they’ll eat of the holy things, because it’s their food. Whatever dies naturally, or is killed by animals, don’t let them eat, making themselves unfit by it. I am Yahweh.
[9-16] So they’ll keep My rules, or they’ll carry sin and die in it, if they bring disrespect on it. I am Yahweh who sets them apart. No stranger will eat of whatever is holy, whether a foreigner living with the priests, or a paid worker, they won’t eat anything holy. But anyone a priest adopts, and those who are born in his family, will eat of the bread. If a priest's daughter is married to an outsider, she won’t eat of the offerings of the holy things. But if a priest's daughter is a death survivor, or divorced, and has no child, and has go backed to her father's house, as in her youth, she may eat of her father's bread, but no stranger will eat any of it. If someone eats something holy unknowingly, then they’ll replace it and add a fifth of its value to it, and will give the holy thing to the priest. The priests won’t bring disrespect on the holy things of the people of Israel, which they offer to Yahweh, and so cause them to carry the guilt of sin, when they eat their holy things because I am Yahweh who sets apart them.'”
[17-25] Yahweh told Moses, “Tell Aaron, and his sons, and all the people of Israel, 'Whoever is of the house of Israel, or of the foreigners in Israel, who gives an offering, whether it be any of their promises, or any of their freewill offerings, which they offer to Yahweh for a burnt offering; that they may be accepted, will offer a male without anything wrong with it, of the cattle, of the sheep, or of the goats. But don’t offer whatever has a fault, because it won’t be accepted by you. Whoever offers a sacrifice of peace offerings to Yahweh to keep a promise, or for a freewill offering, of the herd or of the flock, it will be perfect and without a fault to be accepted by you. Don’t offer anything blind, crippled, hurt, having a running sore, or an itch, or a skin disease to Yahweh, nor make an offering by fire of them on the altar to Yahweh. Either a bull or a lamb that has something wrong with it, may be offered for a freewill offering; but it won’t be accepted to keep a promise. Don’t offer whatever has its testicles bruised, crushed, broken, or cut to Yahweh; nor will you do this (to your animals) in your land. Nor will you take an offering to God of any of these from a foreigner; because they’re damaged. There is a fault in them. They won’t be accepted by you.'”
[26-30] Yahweh told Moses, “When a cow, sheep, or goat is born, then it will stay with its mother for seven days; and from the eighth day on it will be accepted to give as an offering of fire to Yahweh. Don’t kill a cow or female sheep and its young both on the same day. When you make a sacrifice of thanksgiving to Yahweh, offer it in a way it will be accepted. It will be eaten in one day, leaving none of it until the morning. I am Yahweh.
[31-33] So you’ll keep My laws, and do them. I am Yahweh. Don’t bring disrespect on My holy name, but I’ll be made holy among the people of Israel. I am Yahweh who makes you holy, who brought you out of the land of Egypt, to be your God. I am Yahweh.”
23[1-3] Yahweh told Moses, “Tell the people of Israel, 'The set feasts of Yahweh, which you’ll announce to be a sacred assembly, are My set feasts. Work will be done for six days but the seventh day is a Seventh Day of peaceful rest, with a sacred assembly, so you’ll do no kind of work. It’s a Seventh Day to Yahweh in all your homes.
[4-8] These are the set feasts of Yahweh, a sacred assembly, which you’ll announce in their set time. On the fourteenth day of the first month in the evening, is Yahweh's Passover. On the fifteenth day of the same month is the feast of bread made without yeast to Yahweh. Seven days you’ll eat bread made without yeast. On the first day you’ll have a sacred assembly. You’ll do no regular work, but you’ll bring an offering of fire to Yahweh for seven days. In the seventh day is a sacred assembly, so you’ll do no regular work.'”
[9-14] Yahweh told Moses, “Tell the people of Israel, 'When you’ve come into the land which I give to you, and gather the harvest, then you’ll bring the first bundle of your harvest to the priest, who will wave the bundle before Yahweh on the day after the Seventh Day, to be accepted for you. On the day when you wave the bundle, you’ll offer a year old male lamb without anything wrong with it for a burnt offering to Yahweh. The grain offering with it will be two 3 quart jars of fine flour mingled with oil, an offering of fire that smells good to Yahweh; and the drink offering with it will be of wine, 1/4th of a 5 quart jar. You’ll eat no bread, nor roasted grain, nor fresh grain, until the day you bring the offering of your God. This is a law forever throughout your generations in all your homes.
[15-22] You’ll count seven Seventh Days from the day after the Seventh Day, when you brought the bundle of the wave offering to the day after the seventh Seventh Day, which will be fifty days; and you’ll offer a new grain offering to Yahweh. You’ll bring out of your homes two loaves of bread for a wave offering made of two 3 quarts jars of fine flour. They’ll be baked with yeast, being the first of your grain harvest to give to Yahweh. You’ll give with the bread seven lambs, a year old, without anything wrong with them, one young bull, and two rams. They’ll be a burnt offering to Yahweh, with their grain offering, and their drink offerings, an offering of fire that smells good to Yahweh. You’ll offer one male goat for a sin offering, and two male lambs a year old for a sacrifice of peace offerings. The priest will wave them with the bread of the first of your harvests for a wave offering to Yahweh, with the two lambs. They’ll be holy to Yahweh for the priest. You’ll announce on the same day that there will be a sacred assembly for you, so you’ll do no regular work. This is a law forever in all your homes throughout your generations. When you gather the harvest of your land, don’t totally gather the corners of your field, nor will you gather what has fallen on the ground of your harvest: you’ll leave it for the poor, and for the foreigner. I am Yahweh your God.'”
[23-25] Yahweh told Moses, “Tell the people of Israel, ' On the first day of the seventh month will be a peaceful rest to you, a holiday remembered by the blowing of trumpets, with a sacred assembly. You’ll do no regular work; and you’ll bring an offering of fire to Yahweh.'”
[26-32] Yahweh told Moses, “But on the tenth day of this seventh month is the day for sins to be covered: it will be a sacred assembly to you, and you’ll be sorry for your sins; and you’ll bring an offering of fire to Yahweh. You’ll do no kind of work in that day because it’s a day for sins to be covered, to cover your sins for you before Yahweh your God. Whoever won’t keep from doing what they want to do in that day will be cut off from the people. Whoever does any kind of work in that day, I’ll destroy from among the people. You’ll do no kind of work: It’s a law forever throughout your generations in all your homes. It will be a Seventh Day of peaceful rest for you, and you won’t do what you want to on that day. At evening, on the ninth day of the month, from one night to the next, this Seventh Day will be kept.”
[33-36] Yahweh told Moses, “Tell the people of Israel, 'On the fifteenth day of this seventh month is the feast of tents for seven days to Yahweh. On the first day will be a sacred assembly, so you’ll do no regular work. Seven days you’ll bring an offering of fire to Yahweh. On the eighth day will be a sacred assembly to you; and you’ll bring an offering of fire to Yahweh. It’s a peaceful assembly, so you’ll do no regular work.
[37-44] These are the set feasts of Yahweh, which you’ll announce to be a sacred assembly, to bring an offering of fire to Yahweh, a burnt offering, and a grain offering, a sacrifice, and drink offerings, each on its own day; besides the Seventh Days of Yahweh, and besides your gifts, and besides all your promises, and besides all your freewill offerings, which you give to Yahweh. So on the fifteenth day of the seventh month, when you’ve gathered in the fruits of the land, you’ll keep the feast of Yahweh seven days: on the first day will be a peaceful rest, and on the eighth day will be a peaceful rest. On the first day you’ll take the fruit of the good trees, branches of palm trees, and branches of thick trees, and willows of the brook; and you’ll be happy before Yahweh your God for seven days. You’ll keep it a feast to Yahweh seven days a year: It’s a law forever throughout your generations; you’ll keep it in the seventh month. You’ll live in shelters made of branches seven days. All who are native-born in Israel will live in shelters made of branches, so that your children may know that I made the people of Israel live in shelters made of branches, when I brought them out of the land of Egypt. I am Yahweh your God.'” So Moses told the people of Israel the set feasts of Yahweh.
24[1-4] Yahweh told Moses, “Tell the people of Israel to bring you pure beaten olive oil for the light of the lamp to burn continually. Outside of the veil of the Law, in the Meeting Place, Aaron will keep it in order from evening to morning before Yahweh continually. It will be a law forever throughout your generations. Aaron will keep in order the lamps on the pure gold lampstand to Yahweh continually.
[5-9] Take fine flour, and bake twelve cakes of it: two 3 quart jars will be in one cake. Set them in two rows, six on a row, on the pure gold table before Yahweh. Put pure frankincense on each row, that it may be a reminder on the bread for an offering of fire to Yahweh. Every Seventh Day you’ll set it in order before Yahweh continually. It’s done for the people of Israel for an everlasting promise. It’s for Aaron and his sons; and they’ll eat it in a holy place because it’s the most holy of all the offerings of Yahweh made by fire by law forever.”
[10-12] The son of an Israelite woman, whose father was an Egyptian, went out among the people of Israel; and the son of the Israelite woman and someone of Israel argued in the camp. The son of the Israelite woman disrespected the Name of God, and cursed, so they brought him to Moses. His mother's name was Shelomith, the daughter of Dibri, of the tribe of Dan. They put him under guard, until Yahweh told them what to do.
[13-23] Yahweh told Moses, “Bring out of the camp the one who cursed; and let all who heard him put their hands on his head, and let all the people kill him with stones. Tell the people of Israel, 'Whoever curses God will be at fault. Whoever disrespects the name of Yahweh, will without a doubt be put to death; all the people will without a doubt stone them. The foreigner as well as the native-born will be put to death when they disrespect the Name of God. Whoever kills anyone will without a doubt be put to death. Whoever kills an animal will make it good, life for life. If anyone injures others; it’ll be done to them as they have done, break for break, eye for eye, tooth for tooth; as they have hurt someone, so will it be done to them. Whoever kills an animal will make it good; and whoever kills someone will be put to death. You’ll have one kind of law, for the foreigner as well as the native-born because I am Yahweh your God.'” So Moses told the people of Israel; and they brought the one who had cursed out of the camp, and killed him with stones. The people of Israel did as Yahweh told Moses.
25[1-7] Yahweh said to Moses in Mount Sinai, “Tell the people of Israel, 'When you come into the land which I give you, then the land will keep a Seventh Day to Yahweh. Six years you’ll plant your field, and six years you’ll work your garden, and gather what grows; but in the seventh year there will be a Seventh Day of peaceful rest for the land, a Seventh Day to Yahweh. Don’t plant your field or work your garden. Don’t gather what grows by itself in your harvest, or the grapes of your untrimmed vine. It will be a year of peaceful rest for the land. The Seventh Day of the land will be for food for you; for yourself, your male and female workers, your paid workers, and for strangers, who live as foreigners with you. Everything that grows will be for food for your animals and for the animals that are in your land.
[8-12] Count off seven Seventh Days of years, seven times seven years; and there will be to you the days of seven Seventh Days of years, which is forty-nine years. Then you’ll sound the loud trumpet on the tenth day of the seventh month. On the Day of Covering Sin you’ll sound the trumpet throughout all your land. You’ll make the fiftieth year holy, and announce freedom throughout the land to all its people. It will be a jubilee to you; and each of you will go back to your own land, and to your own family. That fiftieth year will be a jubilee to you. Don’t plant, nor gather what grows by itself, nor gather from the untrimmed vines in it. It’s a jubilee, so it will be holy to you. You’ll eat what grows out of the field.
[13-17] In this Year of Jubilee each of you will go back to your own land. If you sell anything to others, or buy from others, don’t wrong one another. You’ll buy from others counting from the number of years after the Jubilee. A person will sell to you counting the number of years of the crops. By the number of years you’ll make the price more, or less, because they’re selling the number of crops to you. Don’t wrong one another; but fear the judgment of your God because I am Yahweh your God.
[18-22] So you’ll keep My laws and rules and do them; and you’ll live in the land in safety. The land will give its food, and you’ll eat your fill, and live in safety. If you say, “What will we eat the seventh year? Look, we won’t plant, nor gather in what grows;” then I’ll send My blessing on you in the sixth year, and it will make enough food for the three years. You’ll plant the eighth year, and eat its crops, and the old store; you’ll eat the old store until the ninth year, until its crops come in.
[23-28] The land won’t be sold forever, for the land is mine; and you are strangers and live as foreigners with Me. In all the land that you own you’ll allow the land to be bought back. If your family member becomes poor, and sells what’s owned, then the next nearest kin will come and buy back whatever has been sold. If someone has no one to buy it back, and becomes wealthy and has enough to buy it back; then let them count the years since the sale of it, and give back what’s left over to the one to whom it was sold; and you’ll go back to your land. But if they aren't able to get it back for themselves, then what they have sold will stay with whoever bought it until the Year of Jubilee: and in the Jubilee it will be given up, and you’ll go back to your land.
[29-31] If someone sells a house in a walled city, then you may buy back it within a whole year after it has been sold. For a full year you’ll have the right to buy it back. If it’s not bought back within the space of a full year, then a house that’s in a walled city will be made sure forever to whoever bought it, throughout your generations. It won’t be given up in the Jubilee. But the houses of the villages which have no wall around them will be counted with the fields of the country. They may be bought back, and they’ll be given up in the Jubilee.
[32-34] But the cities of the Levites, the houses they own in the cities, the Levites may buy back at any time. The Levites may buy back the house they owned that was sold, and the city they owned, and it will be given up in the Jubilee; for the houses of the cities of the Levites are their own among the people of Israel. But the fields of the open land of their cities won’t be sold; for it’s their own forever.
[35-43] “'If your family member has become poor, and you can't help them keep their home; then you’ll help them as you would a stranger or a foreigner and they’ll live with you. Take no interest from them or profit, but fear the judgment of your God; that your family member may live among you. Don’t lend them your money at interest, nor give them your food for profit. I am Yahweh your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt, to give you the land of Canaan, and to be your God. If your family member has grown poor among you, and sells themselves to you; Don’t make them work as a servant. They’ll be as a paid worker, and as a foreigner with you; They’ll serve with you until the Year of Jubilee and then go out from you, they and their children with them, and will go back to their own family, and to their own land. For they’re My workers, whom I brought forth out of the land of Egypt. They won’t be sold as servants. Don’t rule over them with cruelty, but fear the judgment of your God.
[44-46] As for your male and female servants, whom you may have; you may buy male and female servants of the nations that are around you. You may also buy the children of strangers who live among you and of their families who are with you, which they’ve had in your land; and they’ll be yours. You may make them an inheritance for your children after you, for their own; you may take them as your servants forever, but don’t rule over your own people, the people of Israel, with cruelty.
[47-] If a stranger or foreigner who lives with you becomes rich, and your family member beside them becomes poor, and sells themselves to the stranger or foreigner living among you, or to a member of the stranger's family; they may be bought back after they’re sold. One of your family members may buy them back; or anyone who’s a close relative to them of their family may buy them back; or if they have grown rich, they may buy themselves back. Count with whoever bought them from the year that they sold themselves to them to the Year of Jubilee: and the sale price will be by the number of years; by the time of a paid worker they’ll be with them.
[51-55] If there are still many years left, they’ll give back the sale price out of the money that they were bought for. If there’s only a few years to the year of jubilee, then you’ll count them; by the years of work they’ll give back the sale price. As a paid worker hired year by year they’ll be with them: Don’t let them be too hard on them. If they aren't bought back by these means, then they’ll be given up in the Year of Jubilee, they, and their children with them. The people of Israel are workers to Me; they’re My workers whom I brought forth out of the land of Egypt. I am Yahweh your God.
26[1-13] You’ll make no false gods for yourselves, nor will you raise up a false god or a carved pillar, nor will you place any carved stone in your land, to worship it because I am Yahweh your God. You’ll keep My Seventh Days, and have respect for My place of worship. I am Yahweh. If you keep My laws, and My rules, and do them; then I’ll give you your rains in season, and the land will grow its food, and the trees of the field will grow their fruit. Your harvesting will reach to the time of grapes, and the time of grapes will reach to the planting time; and you’ll eat your bread to the full, and live in your land safely. I’ll give peace in the land, and you’ll lie down, and no one will make you afraid; and I’ll take evil animals out of the land, nor will war go through your land. You’ll chase your enemies, and they’ll fall before you in war. Five of you will chase a hundred, and a hundred of you will chase ten thousand; and your enemies will fall before you in war. I’ll have respect for you, and make you have many children, and will keep My promise with you. You’ll eat old store long kept, and you’ll move out the old because of the new. I’ll set My Place of Worship among you: and My soul won't hate you. I’ll be with you, and be your God, and you’ll be My people. I am Yahweh your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt, that you should not be their servants; and I’ve made your heavy loads to fall, and made you stand up straight.
[14-21] But if you don’t listen to Me, and won’t do all these Laws; and if you reject My laws, and your soul hates My rules, so that you don’t do them, and break My promise; I will do this to you also: I’ll put fear in your hearts, and disease and fever will take the spark out of your eyes, and make you die in sorrow; and you’ll plant your seed uselessly, for your enemies will eat it. I’ll turn against you, and you’ll be hurt by your enemies. Those who hate you will rule over you; and you’ll run when no one is chasing you. If in spite of these things you still won’t listen to Me, then I’ll punish you seven times more for your sins. I’ll break the pride of your strength, and I’ll make your sky glow like hot iron, and your soil hard like brass; and your strength will be spent uselessly; for your land won't grow its food, nor will the trees of the land make their fruit. If you go against Me, and won't listen to Me, then I’ll bring seven times more problems on you by your sins.
[22-28] I’ll send the wild animals among you, which will rob you of your children, destroy your animals, and make you few in number; and your roads will become empty. If by these things you won't learn from Me, but still go against Me; then I’ll go against you, too; and I’ll hurt you seven more times for your sins. I’ll bring war on you, that will punish you for breaking the promise; and you’ll be gathered together in your cities: and I’ll send disease among you; and you’ll be brought into the power of the enemy. When I destroy your supply of food, ten women will bake your bread in one oven, and they’ll bring your bread again by weight: and you’ll eat, and still be hungry. If in spite of this, you still won't listen to Me, but go against Me, then I’ll go against to you in great anger; and I’ll also punish you seven more times for your sins.
[29-35] You’ll eat the bodies of your own sons and daughters. I’ll destroy your places of worship, and your incense altars, and throw your dead bodies on top of your lifeless false gods; and My soul will hate you. I’ll destroy your cities, and bring your places of worship to ruin, and I won’t be happy with the good smell of your offerings. I’ll bring the land into ruin; and your enemies that live in it will be in horror of it. I’ll scatter you among the nations, and I’ll bring war on you: and your land will be a ruin, and your cities will be a waste. Then the land will enjoy its Seventh Days as long as it’s deserted and you are in your enemies' land. Even then the land will rest and enjoy its Seventh Days. As long as it’s deserted it will have rest, even the rest which it didn't have in your Seventh Days, when you lived on it.
[36-39] As for those who are left, I’ll send fear into your hearts in the lands of your enemies: and the sound of a falling leaf will chase you; and you’ll run as running from war; and you’ll fall when no one is chasing you. You’ll trip over one another, as if it were a war, when no one is chasing you: and you’ll have no power to stand up to your enemies. You’ll die among the nations, and in the land of your enemies. Those who are left will die in sorrow from your faults and your parents’ faults in your enemies' lands.
[40-46] If they admit their fault, and their parents’ faults, in which they sinned against Me, and also that they went against Me, and that I also went against them, and brought them into the land of their enemies: if then their unfit heart is humbled, and they then accept the punishment of their sin; then I’ll remember My promise with Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob; and I’ll remember the land. The land also will be left by them, and will enjoy its Seventh Days while it lies deserted without them: and they’ll accept the punishment of their sin; because they rejected My rules, and their soul hated My laws. Yet for all that, when they’re in the land of their enemies, I won’t stay away from them, nor will I hate them, or destroy them completely. I won’t break My promise with them because I am Yahweh their God; but for their sake I’ll remember the promise of their ancestors, whom I brought forth out of the land of Egypt in the sight of the nations, that I might be their God. I am Yahweh.'” These are the judgments, rules and laws, which Yahweh made with the people of Israel in Mount Sinai by Moses.
27[1-8] Yahweh told Moses, “Tell the people of Israel, 'When someone makes a promise, the persons will be for Yahweh by what you say they’re worth. What a male from twenty to sixty years old is worth, will be fifty silver dollars, after the dollar of the place of worship. If it’s a female, then her worth will be thirty dollars. If the person is from five to twenty years old, then their worth will be for a male twenty dollars, and for a female ten dollars. If the person is from a month old to five years old, then their worth will be for a male five silver dollars, and for a female their worth will be three silver dollars. If the person is from sixty years old up; if it’s a male, then their worth will be fifteen dollars, and for a female ten dollars. But if they’re poorer than they’re worth, then they’ll be set before the priest, and the priest will set their worth. By the ability of whoever made the promise, the priest will set their worth.
[9-13] “'If it’s an animal that is brought for an offering to Yahweh, all that anyone gives of such to Yahweh becomes holy. Don’t switch it, nor change it, a good for a bad, or a bad for a good: and if you change animal for animal at all, then both it and that for which it’s changed will be holy. If it’s any unfit animal, of which they don’t give as an offering to Yahweh, then you’ll set the animal before the priest; and the priest will set it’s worth, whether it’s good or bad. As the priest sets its worth, so will it be. But if you want to buy it back, then you’ll add a fifth of what it’s worth.
[14-15] When someone dedicates a house to be holy to Yahweh, then the priest will decide what it’s worth, whether it’s good or bad: as the priest decides what it’s worth, so will it stand. If whoever dedicates it wants to buy it back, then you’ll add a fifth of the money of its worth to it, and it will be theirs.
[16-25] If someone dedicates to Yahweh part of the field they own, then its worth will be by the seed that’s planted in it: the planting of 80 gallons of barley will be valued at fifty silver dollars. If they dedicate a field from the Year of Jubilee, by its worth it will stand. But if they dedicate a field after the Jubilee, then the priest will count to them the money by the years that are left to the Year of Jubilee; and it will be taken from it’s worth. If whoever dedicated the field wants to buy it back, then a fifth of the money of its worth will be added to it, and it will be theirs. If they don’t buy back the field, or if they’ve sold the field to someone else, it won’t be bought back again; but the field, when it goes out in the Jubilee, will be holy to Yahweh, as a field dedicated; it will be owned by the priests. If they dedicate to Yahweh a field which they’ve bought, which is not what was already owned, then the priest will count to them its worth up to the Year of Jubilee; and they’ll give its worth on that day, as a holy thing to Yahweh. In the Year of Jubilee the field will go back to the one from whom it was bought, to the one to whom the land belongs. Their worth will be by the dollar of the place of worship: twenty nickels to the dollar.
[26-29] No one may dedicate the firstborn among animals, which is offered as a firstborn to Yahweh, whether a bull or sheep, because it’s already Yahweh's. If it’s an unfit animal, then they’ll buy it back by its worth, and will add a fifth to it: or if it isn't bought back, then it will be sold by its worth. Even so, nothing that someone dedicates to Yahweh of all that they have, whether human or animal, or of the field they own, will be sold or bought back because every dedicated thing is most holy to Yahweh. No one dedicated, who is dedicated from among human beings, will be bought back; they’ll without a doubt be put to death.
[30-34] A tenth of all the land, whether of the seed of the land or of the fruit of the trees, is Yahweh's. It’s holy to Yahweh. If someone buy backs anything they give, they’ll add five percent to it. A tenth of all the herds or the flocks, whatever passes under the counting rod, will be holy to Yahweh. Don’t look at whether it’s good or bad, nor will you change it: and if you change it at all, then both it and that for which it’s changed will be holy. It won’t be bought back.'” These are the Laws which Yahweh told Moses for the people of Israel on Mount Sinai.

Leviticus 16-20
Leviticus
Chapters 16-20
16[1-5] Yahweh told Moses, after the death of the two sons of Aaron, when they came to Yahweh, and died, “Tell Aaron your brother, not to come at any time into the Most Holy Place behind the veil, before the Seat of Forgiveness which is on the ark or he’ll die when he sees Me in the cloud on the Seat of Forgiveness. Aaron will come into the place of worship with a young bull for a sin offering, and a male goat for a burnt offering. He’ll put on the holy linen coat, the linen underwear, the linen belt, and the linen hat. They’re the holy clothes. He’ll take a bath, and put them on. He’ll take from the people of the children of Israel two male goats for a sin offering, and one male goat for a burnt offering.
[6-10] Aaron will offer the bull of the sin offering, which is for the priests, and cover the sins of himself and his family. He’ll take the two goats, and set them before Yahweh at the door of the Meeting Place. Aaron will use the Judgment Stones to choose between the two goats; one for Yahweh, and the other for the scapegoat. Aaron will present the goat which was chosen for Yahweh, and offer it for a sin offering. But the goat, which was chosen for the scapegoat, will be brought alive to Yahweh, to cover sins, to be sent away into the countryside.
[11-16] Aaron will present the bull of the sin offering, which is for the priests, and will cover the sins of himself and his family, and will kill the bull of the sin offering which is for himself. Have him take a fire pan full of coals of fire from off the altar of Yahweh, and two handfuls of sweet incense beaten small, and bring it behind the veil. Have him put the incense on the fire before Yahweh that the smoke of the incense may cover the Seat of Forgiveness that’s on the Box of the Law, so that they don’t die. Have him take some of the blood of the bull, and sprinkle it with a finger on the east side of Seat of Forgiveness; and sprinkle some of the blood in front of the Seat of Forgiveness with a finger seven times. Then have him kill the goat of the sin offering, that’s for the people, and bring the blood behind the veil, and do with it as with the blood of the bull, and sprinkle it on the east side of Seat of Forgiveness, and in front of the Seat of Forgiveness and their sins will be covered for the Holy Place, because of the children of Israel being unfit, and because of their disobedience, and all their sins; and do this also for the Meeting Place, that is with this unfit people.
[17-19] There will be no one in the Meeting Place when he enters to cover sins in the Holy Place, until he comes out, and has made sins will be covered for himself and his family, and for all the people of Israel. Have him go out to the altar that’s before Yahweh and make it fit, and take some of the bull's blood, and some of the goat's blood, and put it on the horns of the altar all around. Have him sprinkle some of the blood on it with a finger seven times, and cleanse it, and make it holy from the children of Israel being unfit.
[20-22] When he has finished making the Holy Place, the Meeting Place, and the altar fit, he’ll present the live goat. Aaron will put both his hands on the head of the live goat, and admit all the faults over it of the children of Israel, all their disobedience, and all their sins; and put them on the head of the goat, and will send it away into the countryside by someone who’s waiting for it. The goat will carry all their faults on its self to a place where no one lives, and it will be let go in the countryside.
[23-28] Aaron will come into the Meeting Place, and take off the linen clothes, which he put on when he went into the Holy Place, and leave them there. Then he’ll take a bath in a holy place, and put on his clothes, and come out and offer his burnt offering and the burnt offering of the people, and cover the sins of himself and the people. The fat of the sin offering he’ll burn on the altar. Whoever lets the goat go for the scapegoat will wash their clothes, and take a bath in water, and will come back into the camp. The bull for the sin offering, and the goat for the sin offering, whose blood was brought in to cover the sins in the Holy Place, will be carried outside the camp; and they’ll burn their skins, meat, and wastes with fire. Whoever burns them will wash their clothes, and take a bath in water, and will come back into the camp.
[29-34] It will be a law to you forever: on the tenth day of the seventh month, you’ll be sorry for your sins, and do no kind of work, either the native-born, or the foreigner who lives among you. On that day your sins will be covered for you, to cleanse you from all your sins, so you’ll be clean before Yahweh. It’s a Seventh Day of peaceful rest to you, and you’ll be sorry for your sins; It’s a law forever. The priest, who’s anointed and dedicated to be priest in his father's place, will cover the sins, and put on the holy linen clothes. Then they’ll cover the sins for the Holy Sanctuary, the Meeting Place, the altar; the priests and all the people of Israel. This will be a law forever to you, to cover the sins for the children of Israel once a year because of all their sins.” It was done as Yahweh told Moses.
17[1-9] Yahweh told Moses, “Tell Aaron, and his sons, and all the children of Israel, 'This is what Yahweh has said, Whoever of the house of Israel, who kills a bull, lamb, or goat, in the camp, or outside it, and hasn't brought it to the door of the Meeting Place, to give an offering to Yahweh at the tent of Yahweh: that person will be guilty of it’s blood. They’ve shed blood; and they’ll be cut off from among the people. This is so that the children of Israel may bring their sacrifices, which they sacrifice in the open field, to Yahweh, to the door of the Meeting Place, to the priest, and make sacrifices of peace offerings to Yahweh. The priest will sprinkle the blood on the altar of Yahweh at the door of the Meeting Place, and burn the fat for an offering that smells good to Yahweh. They won’t make their sacrifices to the false gods of goats, which they follow after, leaving the true worship of God. This will be a law forever to them throughout their generations.' You’ll say to them, ‘Anyone of the house of Israel, or of the strangers who live as foreigners among them, who offers a burnt offering or sacrifice, and doesn't bring it to the door of the Meeting Place, to sacrifice it to Yahweh; will be cut off from the people.’
[10-16] Anyone of the house of Israel, or of the strangers who live as foreigners among them, who eats any kind of blood, I’ll turn against, and will cut them off from among the people. For the life of the body is in the blood; and I’ve given it to you on the altar to cover your sins for your souls because it’s the life in the blood that covers your sins. So, I’ve said to the children of Israel, ‘No one among you will eat blood, nor will any stranger who lives as a foreigner among you.’ Whoever of the children of Israel, or of the strangers who live as foreigners among them, who goes hunting for any animal or bird that may be eaten, will pour out its blood, and cover it with dust. The blood gives life to all bodies, so I said to the children of Israel, ‘Don’t eat the blood of any kind of meat; for the blood gives life to all bodies. Whoever eats it will be cut off.’ Everyone that eats what dies by itself, or whatever is killed by animals, whether they’re native-born or a foreigner, will wash their clothes, and take a bath, and won’t be clean until evening. But if they don't wash them, or take a bath, then they’ll be at fault.'”
18[1-5] Yahweh told Moses, “Tell the children of Israel, 'I am Yahweh your God. Don’t do as they do in the land of Egypt, where you lived: and don’t do as they do in the land of Canaan, where I am bringing you; nor will you obey their laws. You’ll obey My rules, and you’ll keep My laws, and do them: I am Yahweh your God. So keep My laws and My rules; which if anyone does, will live: I am Yahweh.
[6-20] Don’t try to have sex with anyone who’s your close relative: I am Yahweh. Don’t have sex with your father, nor with your mother because they’re your parents. Don’t have sex with them. Don’t have sex with your father's wife: She’s your step mother. Don’t have sex with your sister, who is the daughter of your father or mother, whether born at home, or somewhere else. Don’t have sex with your granddaughter, because she’s your own kin. Don’t have sex with your half sister, by your father, since she’s your sister. Don’t have sex with your aunt because she’s your near kin. Don’t have sex with your uncle’s wife because she’s your aunt. Don’t have sex with your daughter-in-law because she’s your son's wife. Don’t have sex with your sister-in-law, because she’s your near kin. Don’t have sex with both a woman and her daughter or her granddaughter, because she’s your near kin: It’s wrong. Don’t take a woman’s sister as a wife, to trouble her, to have sex with her, while the other is still alive. Don’t have sex with a woman as long as she’s unfit while on her period. Don’t have sex with someone else’s wife, and make yourself unfit with her.
[21-30] Don’t burn any of your children in fire as a sacrifice to a false god; nor will you bring disrespect on the name of your God: I am Yahweh. Don’t have sex with a male, as you would with a woman. That’s wrong. Don’t have sex with any animal to make yourself unfit with it; nor will any woman give herself to an animal, to have sex with it: It’s wrong. Don't make yourselves unfit in any of these things because the nations which I am throwing out before you were made unfit by doing these kinds of things. The land was made unfit, so I punished their faults, and the land vomited out its people. So keep My laws and My rules, and don’t do any of these wrongs; not the native-born, or the stranger who lives as a foreigner among you; (because the people of the land that were before you have done all these wrongs, and the land was made unfit); so that the land not vomit you out also, when you make it unfit, as it vomited out the nation that was before you. Whoever does any of these things that are wrong will be cut off from among their people. So keep My orders, that you don’t do any of these filthy practices, which were done before you, and that you don’t make yourselves unfit with them: I am Yahweh your God.'”
19[1-4] Yahweh told Moses, “Tell all the people of the children of Israel, 'Be holy; for I Yahweh your God am holy. Respect your parents. Keep My Seventh Days. I am Yahweh your God. Don't turn to false gods, nor make metal gods for yourselves. I am Yahweh your God.
[5-8] When you offer a sacrifice of peace offerings to Yahweh, offer it so that you may be accepted. It will be eaten the day you offer it, and the next day, and if anything is left on the third day, it will be burned with fire. If it’s eaten at all on the third day, it’s wrong. It won’t be accepted; but everyone who eats it will be at fault, because they have brought disrespect on the holy thing of Yahweh, and they’ll be cut off from the people.
[9-10] When you gather the harvest of your land, don’t totally gather the corners of your field, nor will you gather what has fallen on the ground of your harvest. Don’t gather all the grapes of your garden, nor will you gather what has fallen of your garden. Leave what has fallen for the poor and for the foreigner. I am Yahweh your God.
[11-14] Don’t steal; nor deal falsely or lie to one another. Don’t swear by My name falsely, and bring disrespect on the name of your God. I am Yahweh. Don’t abuse others, nor rob them. Pay hired workers the day they do the work, don’t wait to pay them till morning. Don’t curse the deaf, nor put something in the way of the blind to make them fall; but fear the judgment of your God. I am Yahweh.
[15-19] Be fair in judgment. Don’t think about who is poor, or how great someone is; but judge others rightly. Don’t go around telling lies to others; nor tell a lie to take the life of others. I am Yahweh. Don’t hate anyone in your heart. Correct others, and don’t put up with sin because of them. Don’t get revenge on someone who has done you wrong, nor hold on to hard feelings against your people; but love others as you love yourself. I am Yahweh. Keep My laws. Don’t crossbreed different kinds of animals. Don’t plant your field with mixed seed; nor wear clothes made with mixed materials.
[20-22] If someone has sex with a female servant, who is promised to be married to another man, and not bought back, or given her freedom; they’ll be punished. They won’t be put to death, because she wasn’t free. He’ll bring a male goat for a guilt offering to Yahweh, to the door of the Meeting Place. The priest will cover his sin with the male goat of the guilt offering to Yahweh for the sin which was done: and what was done will be forgiven.
[23-25] When you come into the land, and have planted all kinds of trees for food, then you’ll count their fruit as unfit for three years. It won’t be eaten. But in the fourth year all its fruit will be holy, for giving praise to Yahweh. In the fifth year you’ll eat its fruit. Do this, so that you’ll be blessed with its fruit. I am Yahweh your God.
[26-29] Don’t eat any meat with the blood still in it; nor will you use witchcraft, nor fortune telling. Don’t cut the hair on the sides of your heads, nor will you cut off the ends of your beard. Don’t carve your skin to remember the dead, nor print any tattoos on you. I am Yahweh. Don't shame your daughter by making her a prostitute; or the land will be filled with prostitution, and become full of wrong.
[30-31] Keep My Seventh Days, and respect My place of worship; I am Yahweh. Don't go looking for answers to those who talk to the dead, do fortune telling, or use witchcraft. Don't seek them out, and be made unfit by them. I am Yahweh your God.
[32-34] Rise up and honor the presence of an old person, and fear the judgment of your God. I am Yahweh. If a stranger lives as a foreigner with you in your land, don’t do them wrong. The stranger who lives as a foreigner with you will be to you as the native-born among you, and you’ll love them as yourself because you once lived as foreigners in the land of Egypt. I am Yahweh your God.
[35-37] Be fair in judgment, in measures of length, of weight, or of quantity. Have equal scales, equal weights, an equal 3-quart jar, and an equal 5 quart jar. I am Yahweh your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt. Keep all My laws, and all My rules, and do them. I am Yahweh.'”
20[1-5] Yahweh told Moses, “Also, tell the children of Israel, 'Anyone of the children of Israel, or of the strangers who live as foreigners in Israel, who gives any of their children to a false god; will without a doubt be put to death. The people of the land will kill them with stones. I, too, will turn against that person, and will cut them off from among the people because they’ve given their children to a false god, to make My place of worship unfit, and to bring disrespect on My holy name. If all the people of the land won’t see that person, when they give their children to a false god, and don't put them to death; then I’ll turn against them, and against their family, and will cut them off from among their people, and all who follow after them, leaving the true worship of God for a false god.
[6-8] “'The person that turns to those who talk to the dead, and to the those who use witchcraft, to follow after them, leaving the true worship of God, I’ll even turn against that person, and will cut them off from among the people. So set yourselves apart, and be holy; for I am Yahweh your God. Keep My laws, and do them. I am Yahweh who sets you apart.
[9-14] Everyone who curses their father or mother will without a doubt be put to death because they have cursed their parent; they’re at fault. Anyone who is sexually unfaithful with another’s spouse, whoever has sex with another's spouse, without a doubt, they’ll both be put to death. Anyone who has sex with his father's wife has shamed his father, without a doubt, they’ll both be put to death; they’re at fault. If someone has sex with their daughter-in-law, without a doubt, they’ll both be put to death: they’ve done wrong; they’re at fault. If a male has sex with another male, as with a woman, both of them have done wrong: they’ll without a doubt be put to death; they’re at fault. If someone takes a woman and her mother, it’s wrong: they’ll all be burned with fire; that there may be no wrong among you.
[15-16] If a man has sex with an animal, he’ll without a doubt be put to death; and the animal will be killed. If a woman goes to any animal, and has sex with it, kill the woman, and the animal; they’ll without a doubt be put to death; they’re at fault.
[17-21] If someone has sex with his sister, his father's daughter, or his mother's daughter, and sees her naked, and she sees him naked; it’s a shameful thing; and they’ll be cut off from their people: he has seen his sister naked and is at fault. If someone has sex with a woman having her monthly period, and sees her naked; and has seen her source of blood, and she has shown the source of her blood: both will be cut off from among the people. If someone has sex with their aunt; they have seen their close relative naked: they’ll be at fault. If someone has sex with his uncle's wife, they have shamed their uncle, and will be at fault; and will die without children. If someone takes their brother's wife, it’s wrong: they have shamed their brother; they’ll not have children.
[22-27] Keep all My laws, and all My rules, and do them, so that the land, where I am bringing you to live, won’t vomit you out. Don’t do what the nation before you did, which I am throwing out before you. They did all these things, so I hated them. But I’ve said to you, “You’ll inherit their land, and I’ll give it to you to own it, a land full of milk and honey.” I am Yahweh your God, who has separated you from the other peoples. So make a difference between the animals that are fit to eat and the unfit, and between the unfit birds and those that are fit to eat: and don’t make yourselves filthy by animal, or bird, or anything else which runs around on the ground, which I’ve separated from you as unfit for you to eat. Be holy to Me: for I, Yahweh, am holy, and have set you apart from the other peoples, that you should be mine. A man or a woman that talks to the dead, or uses witchcraft, will without a doubt be put to death: they’ll kill them with stones; they’re at fault.'”
Chapters 16-20
16[1-5] Yahweh told Moses, after the death of the two sons of Aaron, when they came to Yahweh, and died, “Tell Aaron your brother, not to come at any time into the Most Holy Place behind the veil, before the Seat of Forgiveness which is on the ark or he’ll die when he sees Me in the cloud on the Seat of Forgiveness. Aaron will come into the place of worship with a young bull for a sin offering, and a male goat for a burnt offering. He’ll put on the holy linen coat, the linen underwear, the linen belt, and the linen hat. They’re the holy clothes. He’ll take a bath, and put them on. He’ll take from the people of the children of Israel two male goats for a sin offering, and one male goat for a burnt offering.
[6-10] Aaron will offer the bull of the sin offering, which is for the priests, and cover the sins of himself and his family. He’ll take the two goats, and set them before Yahweh at the door of the Meeting Place. Aaron will use the Judgment Stones to choose between the two goats; one for Yahweh, and the other for the scapegoat. Aaron will present the goat which was chosen for Yahweh, and offer it for a sin offering. But the goat, which was chosen for the scapegoat, will be brought alive to Yahweh, to cover sins, to be sent away into the countryside.
[11-16] Aaron will present the bull of the sin offering, which is for the priests, and will cover the sins of himself and his family, and will kill the bull of the sin offering which is for himself. Have him take a fire pan full of coals of fire from off the altar of Yahweh, and two handfuls of sweet incense beaten small, and bring it behind the veil. Have him put the incense on the fire before Yahweh that the smoke of the incense may cover the Seat of Forgiveness that’s on the Box of the Law, so that they don’t die. Have him take some of the blood of the bull, and sprinkle it with a finger on the east side of Seat of Forgiveness; and sprinkle some of the blood in front of the Seat of Forgiveness with a finger seven times. Then have him kill the goat of the sin offering, that’s for the people, and bring the blood behind the veil, and do with it as with the blood of the bull, and sprinkle it on the east side of Seat of Forgiveness, and in front of the Seat of Forgiveness and their sins will be covered for the Holy Place, because of the children of Israel being unfit, and because of their disobedience, and all their sins; and do this also for the Meeting Place, that is with this unfit people.
[17-19] There will be no one in the Meeting Place when he enters to cover sins in the Holy Place, until he comes out, and has made sins will be covered for himself and his family, and for all the people of Israel. Have him go out to the altar that’s before Yahweh and make it fit, and take some of the bull's blood, and some of the goat's blood, and put it on the horns of the altar all around. Have him sprinkle some of the blood on it with a finger seven times, and cleanse it, and make it holy from the children of Israel being unfit.
[20-22] When he has finished making the Holy Place, the Meeting Place, and the altar fit, he’ll present the live goat. Aaron will put both his hands on the head of the live goat, and admit all the faults over it of the children of Israel, all their disobedience, and all their sins; and put them on the head of the goat, and will send it away into the countryside by someone who’s waiting for it. The goat will carry all their faults on its self to a place where no one lives, and it will be let go in the countryside.
[23-28] Aaron will come into the Meeting Place, and take off the linen clothes, which he put on when he went into the Holy Place, and leave them there. Then he’ll take a bath in a holy place, and put on his clothes, and come out and offer his burnt offering and the burnt offering of the people, and cover the sins of himself and the people. The fat of the sin offering he’ll burn on the altar. Whoever lets the goat go for the scapegoat will wash their clothes, and take a bath in water, and will come back into the camp. The bull for the sin offering, and the goat for the sin offering, whose blood was brought in to cover the sins in the Holy Place, will be carried outside the camp; and they’ll burn their skins, meat, and wastes with fire. Whoever burns them will wash their clothes, and take a bath in water, and will come back into the camp.
[29-34] It will be a law to you forever: on the tenth day of the seventh month, you’ll be sorry for your sins, and do no kind of work, either the native-born, or the foreigner who lives among you. On that day your sins will be covered for you, to cleanse you from all your sins, so you’ll be clean before Yahweh. It’s a Seventh Day of peaceful rest to you, and you’ll be sorry for your sins; It’s a law forever. The priest, who’s anointed and dedicated to be priest in his father's place, will cover the sins, and put on the holy linen clothes. Then they’ll cover the sins for the Holy Sanctuary, the Meeting Place, the altar; the priests and all the people of Israel. This will be a law forever to you, to cover the sins for the children of Israel once a year because of all their sins.” It was done as Yahweh told Moses.
17[1-9] Yahweh told Moses, “Tell Aaron, and his sons, and all the children of Israel, 'This is what Yahweh has said, Whoever of the house of Israel, who kills a bull, lamb, or goat, in the camp, or outside it, and hasn't brought it to the door of the Meeting Place, to give an offering to Yahweh at the tent of Yahweh: that person will be guilty of it’s blood. They’ve shed blood; and they’ll be cut off from among the people. This is so that the children of Israel may bring their sacrifices, which they sacrifice in the open field, to Yahweh, to the door of the Meeting Place, to the priest, and make sacrifices of peace offerings to Yahweh. The priest will sprinkle the blood on the altar of Yahweh at the door of the Meeting Place, and burn the fat for an offering that smells good to Yahweh. They won’t make their sacrifices to the false gods of goats, which they follow after, leaving the true worship of God. This will be a law forever to them throughout their generations.' You’ll say to them, ‘Anyone of the house of Israel, or of the strangers who live as foreigners among them, who offers a burnt offering or sacrifice, and doesn't bring it to the door of the Meeting Place, to sacrifice it to Yahweh; will be cut off from the people.’
[10-16] Anyone of the house of Israel, or of the strangers who live as foreigners among them, who eats any kind of blood, I’ll turn against, and will cut them off from among the people. For the life of the body is in the blood; and I’ve given it to you on the altar to cover your sins for your souls because it’s the life in the blood that covers your sins. So, I’ve said to the children of Israel, ‘No one among you will eat blood, nor will any stranger who lives as a foreigner among you.’ Whoever of the children of Israel, or of the strangers who live as foreigners among them, who goes hunting for any animal or bird that may be eaten, will pour out its blood, and cover it with dust. The blood gives life to all bodies, so I said to the children of Israel, ‘Don’t eat the blood of any kind of meat; for the blood gives life to all bodies. Whoever eats it will be cut off.’ Everyone that eats what dies by itself, or whatever is killed by animals, whether they’re native-born or a foreigner, will wash their clothes, and take a bath, and won’t be clean until evening. But if they don't wash them, or take a bath, then they’ll be at fault.'”
18[1-5] Yahweh told Moses, “Tell the children of Israel, 'I am Yahweh your God. Don’t do as they do in the land of Egypt, where you lived: and don’t do as they do in the land of Canaan, where I am bringing you; nor will you obey their laws. You’ll obey My rules, and you’ll keep My laws, and do them: I am Yahweh your God. So keep My laws and My rules; which if anyone does, will live: I am Yahweh.
[6-20] Don’t try to have sex with anyone who’s your close relative: I am Yahweh. Don’t have sex with your father, nor with your mother because they’re your parents. Don’t have sex with them. Don’t have sex with your father's wife: She’s your step mother. Don’t have sex with your sister, who is the daughter of your father or mother, whether born at home, or somewhere else. Don’t have sex with your granddaughter, because she’s your own kin. Don’t have sex with your half sister, by your father, since she’s your sister. Don’t have sex with your aunt because she’s your near kin. Don’t have sex with your uncle’s wife because she’s your aunt. Don’t have sex with your daughter-in-law because she’s your son's wife. Don’t have sex with your sister-in-law, because she’s your near kin. Don’t have sex with both a woman and her daughter or her granddaughter, because she’s your near kin: It’s wrong. Don’t take a woman’s sister as a wife, to trouble her, to have sex with her, while the other is still alive. Don’t have sex with a woman as long as she’s unfit while on her period. Don’t have sex with someone else’s wife, and make yourself unfit with her.
[21-30] Don’t burn any of your children in fire as a sacrifice to a false god; nor will you bring disrespect on the name of your God: I am Yahweh. Don’t have sex with a male, as you would with a woman. That’s wrong. Don’t have sex with any animal to make yourself unfit with it; nor will any woman give herself to an animal, to have sex with it: It’s wrong. Don't make yourselves unfit in any of these things because the nations which I am throwing out before you were made unfit by doing these kinds of things. The land was made unfit, so I punished their faults, and the land vomited out its people. So keep My laws and My rules, and don’t do any of these wrongs; not the native-born, or the stranger who lives as a foreigner among you; (because the people of the land that were before you have done all these wrongs, and the land was made unfit); so that the land not vomit you out also, when you make it unfit, as it vomited out the nation that was before you. Whoever does any of these things that are wrong will be cut off from among their people. So keep My orders, that you don’t do any of these filthy practices, which were done before you, and that you don’t make yourselves unfit with them: I am Yahweh your God.'”
19[1-4] Yahweh told Moses, “Tell all the people of the children of Israel, 'Be holy; for I Yahweh your God am holy. Respect your parents. Keep My Seventh Days. I am Yahweh your God. Don't turn to false gods, nor make metal gods for yourselves. I am Yahweh your God.
[5-8] When you offer a sacrifice of peace offerings to Yahweh, offer it so that you may be accepted. It will be eaten the day you offer it, and the next day, and if anything is left on the third day, it will be burned with fire. If it’s eaten at all on the third day, it’s wrong. It won’t be accepted; but everyone who eats it will be at fault, because they have brought disrespect on the holy thing of Yahweh, and they’ll be cut off from the people.
[9-10] When you gather the harvest of your land, don’t totally gather the corners of your field, nor will you gather what has fallen on the ground of your harvest. Don’t gather all the grapes of your garden, nor will you gather what has fallen of your garden. Leave what has fallen for the poor and for the foreigner. I am Yahweh your God.
[11-14] Don’t steal; nor deal falsely or lie to one another. Don’t swear by My name falsely, and bring disrespect on the name of your God. I am Yahweh. Don’t abuse others, nor rob them. Pay hired workers the day they do the work, don’t wait to pay them till morning. Don’t curse the deaf, nor put something in the way of the blind to make them fall; but fear the judgment of your God. I am Yahweh.
[15-19] Be fair in judgment. Don’t think about who is poor, or how great someone is; but judge others rightly. Don’t go around telling lies to others; nor tell a lie to take the life of others. I am Yahweh. Don’t hate anyone in your heart. Correct others, and don’t put up with sin because of them. Don’t get revenge on someone who has done you wrong, nor hold on to hard feelings against your people; but love others as you love yourself. I am Yahweh. Keep My laws. Don’t crossbreed different kinds of animals. Don’t plant your field with mixed seed; nor wear clothes made with mixed materials.
[20-22] If someone has sex with a female servant, who is promised to be married to another man, and not bought back, or given her freedom; they’ll be punished. They won’t be put to death, because she wasn’t free. He’ll bring a male goat for a guilt offering to Yahweh, to the door of the Meeting Place. The priest will cover his sin with the male goat of the guilt offering to Yahweh for the sin which was done: and what was done will be forgiven.
[23-25] When you come into the land, and have planted all kinds of trees for food, then you’ll count their fruit as unfit for three years. It won’t be eaten. But in the fourth year all its fruit will be holy, for giving praise to Yahweh. In the fifth year you’ll eat its fruit. Do this, so that you’ll be blessed with its fruit. I am Yahweh your God.
[26-29] Don’t eat any meat with the blood still in it; nor will you use witchcraft, nor fortune telling. Don’t cut the hair on the sides of your heads, nor will you cut off the ends of your beard. Don’t carve your skin to remember the dead, nor print any tattoos on you. I am Yahweh. Don't shame your daughter by making her a prostitute; or the land will be filled with prostitution, and become full of wrong.
[30-31] Keep My Seventh Days, and respect My place of worship; I am Yahweh. Don't go looking for answers to those who talk to the dead, do fortune telling, or use witchcraft. Don't seek them out, and be made unfit by them. I am Yahweh your God.
[32-34] Rise up and honor the presence of an old person, and fear the judgment of your God. I am Yahweh. If a stranger lives as a foreigner with you in your land, don’t do them wrong. The stranger who lives as a foreigner with you will be to you as the native-born among you, and you’ll love them as yourself because you once lived as foreigners in the land of Egypt. I am Yahweh your God.
[35-37] Be fair in judgment, in measures of length, of weight, or of quantity. Have equal scales, equal weights, an equal 3-quart jar, and an equal 5 quart jar. I am Yahweh your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt. Keep all My laws, and all My rules, and do them. I am Yahweh.'”
20[1-5] Yahweh told Moses, “Also, tell the children of Israel, 'Anyone of the children of Israel, or of the strangers who live as foreigners in Israel, who gives any of their children to a false god; will without a doubt be put to death. The people of the land will kill them with stones. I, too, will turn against that person, and will cut them off from among the people because they’ve given their children to a false god, to make My place of worship unfit, and to bring disrespect on My holy name. If all the people of the land won’t see that person, when they give their children to a false god, and don't put them to death; then I’ll turn against them, and against their family, and will cut them off from among their people, and all who follow after them, leaving the true worship of God for a false god.
[6-8] “'The person that turns to those who talk to the dead, and to the those who use witchcraft, to follow after them, leaving the true worship of God, I’ll even turn against that person, and will cut them off from among the people. So set yourselves apart, and be holy; for I am Yahweh your God. Keep My laws, and do them. I am Yahweh who sets you apart.
[9-14] Everyone who curses their father or mother will without a doubt be put to death because they have cursed their parent; they’re at fault. Anyone who is sexually unfaithful with another’s spouse, whoever has sex with another's spouse, without a doubt, they’ll both be put to death. Anyone who has sex with his father's wife has shamed his father, without a doubt, they’ll both be put to death; they’re at fault. If someone has sex with their daughter-in-law, without a doubt, they’ll both be put to death: they’ve done wrong; they’re at fault. If a male has sex with another male, as with a woman, both of them have done wrong: they’ll without a doubt be put to death; they’re at fault. If someone takes a woman and her mother, it’s wrong: they’ll all be burned with fire; that there may be no wrong among you.
[15-16] If a man has sex with an animal, he’ll without a doubt be put to death; and the animal will be killed. If a woman goes to any animal, and has sex with it, kill the woman, and the animal; they’ll without a doubt be put to death; they’re at fault.
[17-21] If someone has sex with his sister, his father's daughter, or his mother's daughter, and sees her naked, and she sees him naked; it’s a shameful thing; and they’ll be cut off from their people: he has seen his sister naked and is at fault. If someone has sex with a woman having her monthly period, and sees her naked; and has seen her source of blood, and she has shown the source of her blood: both will be cut off from among the people. If someone has sex with their aunt; they have seen their close relative naked: they’ll be at fault. If someone has sex with his uncle's wife, they have shamed their uncle, and will be at fault; and will die without children. If someone takes their brother's wife, it’s wrong: they have shamed their brother; they’ll not have children.
[22-27] Keep all My laws, and all My rules, and do them, so that the land, where I am bringing you to live, won’t vomit you out. Don’t do what the nation before you did, which I am throwing out before you. They did all these things, so I hated them. But I’ve said to you, “You’ll inherit their land, and I’ll give it to you to own it, a land full of milk and honey.” I am Yahweh your God, who has separated you from the other peoples. So make a difference between the animals that are fit to eat and the unfit, and between the unfit birds and those that are fit to eat: and don’t make yourselves filthy by animal, or bird, or anything else which runs around on the ground, which I’ve separated from you as unfit for you to eat. Be holy to Me: for I, Yahweh, am holy, and have set you apart from the other peoples, that you should be mine. A man or a woman that talks to the dead, or uses witchcraft, will without a doubt be put to death: they’ll kill them with stones; they’re at fault.'”
Leviticus 11-15
Leviticus
Chapters 11-15
11[1-8] Yahweh told Moses and Aaron, “Tell the children of Israel, 'These are the living things which you may eat among all the animals that are on the earth. You may eat any animal that has a parted hoof, which is divided in two, and re-chews their food. But don’t eat of those that re-chew their food, or have parted hoofs like the camel, because they re-chew their food but don't have a parted hoof, so it’s unhealthy for you. The badger, because they re-chew their food but don't have a parted hoof, so it’s unhealthy for you. The rabbit, because they re-chew their food but don't have a parted hoof, so it’s unhealthy to you. The pig, because they’ve a parted hoof, which is divided in two, but they don't re-chew their food, so it’s unhealthy for you. Don’t eat their meat, and don’t touch their dead bodies because they’re unhealthy for you.
[9-12] You may eat anything in the waters that has fins and scales in the lakes, rivers, and seas. Count as garbage anything that doesn't have fins and scales in the rivers and seas, anything that moves of all the living creatures that are in the waters, and stay away from them. Don’t eat their meat, and stay away from their dead bodies. Whatever has no fins or scales in the waters is counted as garbage to you.
[13-19] Don’t eat these birds, but stay away from them and count them as garbage: any kind of eagle, vulture, buzzard, hawk, falcon, raven, male or female ostriches, cuckoo, or any kind of bird of prey, owl, seagull, ibis, pelican, bustard, stork, heron, desert lark, and bat.
[20-25] Count all flying insects that walk on all fours as garbage. Yet you may eat any winged insect that runs around on four feet, which has legs above their feet, and hops on the earth. You may eat any kind of locust, katydid, cricket, or grasshopper. But all winged insects that run around on four feet, count as garbage. You’ll become unhealthy if you eat them or touch their dead body and won’t be clean until evening. Whoever carries any part of their dead body will wash their clothes, and won’t be clean until evening.
[26-28] Every animal which has a parted foot that isn’t divided in two, nor re-chews their food, is unhealthy to you. Everyone who touches them will be unhealthy. Whatever runs on paws, among all animals that have four feet, they’re unhealthy to you. Whoever touches their dead body won’t be clean until evening. Whoever carries their dead body will wash their clothes, and won’t be clean until evening. They are unhealthy to you.
[29-38] These are what are unhealthy to you among the small animals that run around on the earth: the weasel, the rat, the mole or any of the rodents; frogs, toads, salamanders, turtles, crocodiles, and lizards, or any of the cold-blooded creatures. These are unhealthy to you among all the small creatures. Whoever touches their dead body won’t be clean until evening. On whatever any of them falls when it dies, it will be unhealthy; whether it’s a bowl of wood, clothing, skin, sack, or whatever it is that is used for work, it must be put into water, and it won’t be clean until evening. Every earthen bowl, into which any of them falls, and all that’s in it will be unhealthy, and you’ll break it. All food mixed with water will be unhealthy; and all drink that may be drunk in every such bowl will be unhealthy. Everywhere part of their dead body falls will be unhealthy; whether on oven, or stove to cook on, it will be broken in pieces because it’s unhealthy to you. Nevertheless a spring or a well in which water is a gathered will be clean: but whatever touches their dead body will be unhealthy. If part of their dead body falls on any seed which is to be planted, it’s clean. But if the seed is put in water to be eaten, and part of their dead body falls on it, it’s unhealthy to you.
[39-40] If any animal dies naturally, which you may eat; whoever touches its dead body won’t be clean until evening. Whoever eats of its dead body will wash their clothes, and won’t be clean until evening. And those who carry its dead body will wash their clothes, and won’t be clean until evening.
[41-43] Everything that crawls on the earth is counted as garbage. It won’t be eaten. Whatever crawls on its belly like a snake, and whatever has four feet like an insect, or whatever has many feet like a spider, every small thing that runs around on the earth, don’t eat them and count them as garbage. Don’t make yourselves filthy with anything that crawls, nor will you make yourselves unhealthy with them, so that you won’t be clean.
[44-47] I Am Yahweh your God. So set yourselves apart and be holy because I am holy: nor will you treat yourselves as common by eating anything that moves on the earth. I am Yahweh who brought you up out of the land of Egypt, to be your God. So be holy, because I am holy. This is the law of all the animals, birds, fish, and of everything that crawls on the earth, to make a difference between what’s unhealthy and what’s clean, and between what may and may not be eaten of all the living things.'”
12[1-5] Yahweh told Moses, “Tell the children of Israel, 'If a woman gets pregnant, and has a male child, then she’ll be unhealthy seven days; as in the days of her monthly period she’ll be unhealthy. In the eighth day the flesh of his foreskin will be cut off. She’ll continue bleeding for thirty-three days to be cleansed. She won’t touch anything holy, nor come into the place of worship, until the days of her cleansing are finished. But if she has a female child, then she’ll be unhealthy two weeks, as in her period; and she’ll continue bleeding for sixty-six days to be cleansed.
[6-8] When the days of her cleansing are finished, for a son, or a daughter, she’ll bring to the priest at the door of the Meeting Place, a year old lamb for a burnt offering, and a young pigeon or dove, for a sin offering and you’ll offer it to Yahweh, and cover her sins for her; and she’ll be cleansed from her bleeding. This is the law for a woman who has childbirth, whether a male or a female. If she can’t give a lamb, then she’ll take two doves, or two young pigeons; the one for a burnt offering, and the other for a sin offering: and the priest will cover her sins for her, and she’ll be clean.'”
13[1-4] Then Yahweh told Moses and Aaron, “When someone has a swelling, a scab, or a bright spot in their skin and it looks like a severe skin disease, then they’ll be brought to Aaron the priest, or to one of his sons the priests: and the priest will look at it: and if the hair has turned white in it, and the problem is deeper than the body's skin, it’s the disease of leprosy; and the priest will look at them, and say that they’re unhealthy. If the bright spot is white, and it isn't deeper than the skin, and the hair hasn't turned white, then the priest will separate the infected person for seven days.
[5-8] The priest will look at them on the seventh day, and if the priest thinks the problem is over, and hasn't spread in the skin, then the priest will separate them for seven more days. The priest will look at them again on the seventh day; and if the problem has faded, and hasn't spread in the skin, then the priest will say that they’re healthy. It’s a scab. They’ll wash their clothes, and are clean. But if the scab spreads on the skin, after they’ve shown it to the priest to see if their all right, they’ll show it to the priest again. The priest will look at them; and if the scab has spread on the skin, then the priest will say that they’re unhealthy. It’s a severe skin disease.
[9-13] When the disease of leprosy is in a human, then they’ll be brought to the priest; and the priest will look at them, and if there’s a white swelling in the skin, and it has turned the hair white, and there’s raw skin in the swelling, it’s a severe skin disease in their body, and the priest will say that they’re unhealthy. Don’t separate them, because they’re unhealthy. If the severe skin disease breaks out all over the skin, and it covers all the skin of the infected person from head to feet, as far as the priest can see; then the priest will look at them; and, if the severe skin disease has covered their whole body, the priest will say that they’re healed of the problem. It has all turned white, so they’re healthy.
[14-17] But whenever raw skin is seen in them, they’ll be unhealthy. The priest will look at the raw skin, and say that they’re unhealthy, because the raw skin is unhealthy. It’s severe skin disease. Or if the raw skin changes again, and becomes white, then they’ll come to the priest; and the priest will look at them; and, if the problem has turned white, then the priest will say that they’re healed of the problem. They’re healthy.
[18-23] When the body has a swelling on its skin, and it has healed, and in the place of the swelling there’s a white growth, or a bright pink spot, then it will be shown to the priest; and the priest will look at it; and if it looks deeper than the skin, and the hair has turned white, then the priest will say that they’re unhealthy. It’s the disease of leprosy. It has broken out in the swelling. But if the priest looks at it, and there are no white hairs in it, and it isn't deeper than the skin, but is dull, then the priest will separate them seven days. If it spreads in the skin, then the priest will say that they’re unhealthy. It’s a problem. But if the bright spot stays there, and hasn't spread, It’s the scar from the swelling; and the priest will say that they’re clean.
[24-28] Or when the body has a burn from fire on its skin, and the raw skin of the burn becomes a bright spot, pink, or white, then the priest will look at it; and if the hair in the bright spot has turned white, and it looks deeper than the skin; it’s a severe skin disease. It has broken out in the burn, and the priest will say that they’re unhealthy. It’s the disease of leprosy. But if the priest looks at it, and there’s no white hair in the bright spot, and it isn't deeper than the skin, but is faded; then the priest will separate them seven days. The priest will look at them on the seventh day. If it has spread in the skin, then the priest will say that they’re unhealthy. It’s the disease of leprosy. If the bright spot stays there, and hasn't spread in the skin, but is faded, it’s the swelling from the burn, and the priest will say that they’re clean; it’s the scar from the burn.
[29-37] When a man or woman has a problem on the head or on the beard, then the priest will look at the problem; and if it looks deeper than the skin, and the hair in it is yellow and thin, then the priest will say that they’re unhealthy: It’s an itch, a severe skin disease of the head or the beard. If the priest looks at the problem of itching, and it isn't deeper than the skin, and there’s no black hair in it, then the priest will separate the person infected with itching seven days. On the seventh day the priest will look at the problem; and if the itch hasn't spread, and there’s no yellow hair in it, and the itch isn't deeper than the skin, then they’ll be shaved, but don’t shave the itch; and the priest will separate whoever has the itch seven more days. On the seventh day, the priest will look at the itch; and if the itch hasn't spread in the skin, and it isn't deeper than the skin, then the priest will say that they’re healthy. They’ll wash their clothes, and are clean. But if the itch spreads in the skin after their healed, then the priest will look at them; and if the itch has spread in the skin, the priest won’t look for the yellow hair; they’re unhealthy. But if the priest thinks the itch is healed, and black hair has grown in it; the itch is healed, and they’re healthy. The priest will say that they’re healthy.
[38-39] When a man or a woman has bright spots in their skin, white looking; then the priest will look at them; and if the bright spots on their skin are a dull white, it’s a harmless rash, it has broken out in the skin; they’re healthy.
[40-44] If a man's hair has fallen from his head, he’s bald. He’s healthy. If his hair has fallen from the front part of his head, he’s forehead bald. He’s healthy. But if there’s a pink spot in the bald head, or forehead; it’s a severe skin disease breaking out in your bald head, or forehead. Then the priest will look at it; and if the pink spot is swelling in your bald head, or forehead, and looks like a severe skin disease, he has a severe skin disease. He’s unhealthy. The priest will say that they’re unhealthy. His problem is on the head.
[45-46] The one who has the problem will wear torn clothes, and their hair will hang loose. They’ll cup their hands around their mouth, and will call out, 'Unhealthy! Unhealthy!' How ever long the problem is in them they’ll be unhealthy. They’re unhealthy and will live alone, outside of the camp.
[47-51] The clothes also that the disease of leprosy is in, whether it’s woolen clothes, or linen clothes; whether it’s in the thread of a woven cloth; of linen, or of wool; whether in a piece of leather, or in anything made of leather; if the problem is greenish or reddish in the clothes, or in the leather, or in the threads of a woven cloth, or in anything made of leather; it’s the disease of leprosy, and will be shown to the priest. The priest will look at it, and separate it for seven days. They’ll look at the problem on the seventh day. If the problem has spread in the clothes, in the threads of the woven cloth or in the leather, whatever it’s used for, the problem is a harmful mildew. It’s unhealthy.
[52-55] Burn the clothes, whether it’s in the threads of a woven cloth, in wool or in linen, or anything of leather that has the problem, because it’s a harmful mildew. Burn it in the fire. If the priest looks at it, and the problem hasn't spread in the clothes, in the threads of the woven cloth or in any part of the leather; then the priest will say to wash whatever has the problem, and you’ll keep it separated seven more days. Then the priest will look at it, after the problem is washed; and if the problem hasn't changed its color, and the problem hasn't spread, it’s unhealthy; burn it in the fire. It’s a mildfemaled spot, whether the problem is inside or outside.
[56-59] If the priest looks, and the problem has faded after it’s washed, then you’ll tear it out of the clothes, or out of the leather, or out of the threads of a woven cloth: and if it’s seen again in the clothes, in the threads of the woven cloth or in anything of leather, it’s spreading. Burn whatever has the problem with fire. The clothes, either a woven cloth, or whatever is made of leather, will be washed, and if the problem has gone from it, then it will be washed again, and it will be clean. This is the law of the problem of mildew in clothes of wool or linen, either in a woven cloth, or in anything made of leather, to tell whether it’s healthy or unhealthy.
14[1-7] Yahweh told Moses, “This will be the law of the leper in the day of cleansing. They’ll be brought to the priest, and the priest will go out of the camp. The priest will look at them, and if the disease of leprosy is healed in the leper, then the priest will tell them to take two living clean birds, and cedar wood, and scarlet, and a a hyssop branch branch for whoever is to be cleansed. The priest will tell them to kill one of the birds in an earthen bowl over running water. As for the living bird, you’ll take it, and the cedar wood, and the scarlet, and the a hyssop branch branch, and will dip them and the living bird in the blood of the bird that was killed over the running water. You’ll sprinkle on whoever is to be cleansed from the severe skin disease seven times, and will say that they’re healthy, and will let the living bird go into the open field.
[8-9] Whoever is to be cleansed will wash their clothes, and shave off all their hair, and take a bath in water; and they’ll be clean. After that they’ll come into the camp, but will live outside their tent seven days. On the seventh day, they’ll shave all their hair off, with the beard and eyebrows, all the hair they’ll shave off. They’ll wash their clothes, and take a bath, then they’ll be clean.
[10-18] On the eighth day they’ll take two male lambs without anything wrong with them, and one female lamb a year old without anything wrong with it, and thirty percent of a 3-quart jar of fine flour for a grain offering, mingled with oil, and a half quart of oil. The priest who cleanses them will set whoever is to be cleansed, and those things, before Yahweh, at the door of the Meeting Place. The priest will take one of the male lambs, and offer it for a guilt offering, with the half quart of oil, and wave them for a wave offering to Yahweh. The priest will kill the male lamb in the place where they kill the sin offering and the burnt offering, in the place of worship; for as the sin offering is the priest's, so is the guilt offering. It’s most holy. The priest will take some of the blood of the guilt offering and put it on the tip of the right ear of whoever is to be cleansed, and on the thumb of their right hand, and on the big toe of their right foot. The priest will take some of the half quart of oil, and pour it into the palm of his own left hand and dip his right finger in it, and sprinkle it with his finger seven times before Yahweh. The priest will put some of the rest of the oil that’s in his hand on the tip of the right ear of whoever is to be cleansed, and on the thumb of the right hand, and on the big toe of the right foot, on the blood of the guilt offering. The rest of the oil that’s in the priest's hand will be put on the head of whoever is to be cleansed, and the priest will cover their sins before Yahweh.
[19-22] The priest will offer the sin offering, and cover the sins of whoever is to be cleansed because of their being unhealthy: and afterward will kill the burnt offering and offer the burnt offering and the grain offering on the altar. The priest will cover their sins, and they’ll be clean. If they’re poor, and can't give so much, then they’ll take one male lamb for a guilt offering to be waved, to cover their sins, and ten percent of a 3-quart jar of fine flour mingled with oil for a grain offering, and a half quart of oil; and two doves, or two young pigeons, whatever they’re able to give; and the one will be a sin offering, and the other a burnt offering.
[23-29] On the eighth day bring them for their cleansing to the priest, to the door of the Meeting Place, to Yahweh. The priest will take the lamb of the guilt offering, and the half quart of oil, and the priest will wave them for a wave offering to Yahweh. Kill the lamb of the guilt offering and take some of the blood of the guilt offering and put it on the tip of the right ear of whoever is to be cleansed, and on the thumb of the right hand, and on the big toe of the right foot. The priest will pour some of the oil into the palm of his own left hand and sprinkle with the right finger some of it seven times before Yahweh. Then the priest will put some of the oil that’s in his hand on the tip of the right ear of whoever is to be cleansed, and on the thumb of the right hand, and on the big toe of the right foot, where the blood of the guilt offering is. The rest of the oil that’s in the priest's hand put on the head of whoever is to be cleansed, to cover their sins before Yahweh.
[30-32] They’ll offer one of the doves, or of the young pigeons, whatever they’re able to give. Offer whatever they’re able to give, the first for a sin offering, and the other for a burnt offering, with the grain offering. The priest will cover their sins for whoever is to be cleansed before Yahweh. This is the law for those who have the disease of leprosy, who aren’t able to give the sacrifice for their cleansing.”
[33-38] Yahweh told Moses and Aaron, “When you have come into the land of Canaan, which I Am giving to you to own, and I put a spreading mildew in a house in your land, then whoever owns the house will come and tell the priest, 'There seems to me to be some sort of problem in the house.' The priest will tell them to empty the house, before the priest goes in to look at the problem, so that all that’s in the house won’t be ruined and then the priest will go in to look at the house. The priest will look at the problem; and if the problem is ingrained in the walls of the house with green or red streaks, and it seems to go into the wall; then the priest will go outside of the house, and shut the door of the house seven days.
[39-44]Then the priest will come again on the seventh day, and look at it again. If the problem has spread in the walls of the house, then the priest will tell them to take out the stones where the problem is, and throw them outside of the city in a place for things that are unhealthy and to scrape all around the inside of the house, and pour out the mortar, that they scraped off, outside of the city into a place for things that are unhealthy. Then they’ll take other stones, and put them in place of those stones; and take other mortar, and plaster the house again. If the problem comes again, and breaks out in the house, after they’ve taken out the stones, and scraped the house, and after it was plastered; then the priest will come in and look; and if the problem has spread in the house, it’s a harmful mildew in the house. It’s unhealthy.
[45-48] They’ll break down the house, its stones, timber, and mortar, and carry them out of the city into a place for things that are unhealthy. And whoever goes into the house while it’s shut up won’t be clean until evening. Whoever has slept or eaten in the house will wash their clothes. If the priest comes in, and looks at it, and the problem hasn't spread in the house, after the house was plastered, then the priest will say that the house clean, because the problem is gone.
[49-53] To cleanse the house take two birds, and cedar wood, and scarlet, and a hyssop branch. Kill one of the birds in an earthen bowl over running water. Take the cedar wood, and the hyssop branch branch, and the scarlet, and the living bird, and dip them in the blood of the bird that was killed, and in the running water, and sprinkle the house seven times. Cleanse the house with the blood of the bird, and with the running water, with the living bird, with the cedar wood, with the hyssop branch, and with the scarlet; but let the living bird go out of the city into the open field. So the problem for the house will be covered; and it will be clean.”
[54-57] This is the law for any problem of a severe skin disease, for an itch, for the harmful mildew of clothes or a house, or for a swelling, a scab, or a bright spot; to teach when it’s unhealthy, and when it’s clean. This is the law of leprosy.
15[1-7] Yahweh told Moses and Aaron, “Tell the children of Israel, 'When any man has a discharge from their body, because of the discharge they’re unhealthy. Someone is unhealthy with a discharge when their body runs with a discharge, or their body has stopped from a discharge. Every bed that someone has slept on who has a discharge will be unhealthy; and everything they sit on will be unhealthy. Whoever touches their bed will wash their clothes, and take a bath, and won’t be clean until evening. Whoever sits on anything where someone has a discharge has sat will wash their clothes, and take a bath, and won’t be clean until evening. Whoever touches the body of someone with a discharge will wash their clothes, and take a bath, and won’t be clean until evening.
[8-13] If whoever has a discharge spits on someone who is healthy, then they’ll wash their clothes, and take a bath, and won’t be clean until evening. Whatever saddle someone who has a discharge rides on will be unhealthy. Whoever touches anything that was under them won’t be clean until evening. Whoever carries those things will wash their clothes, and take a bath, and won’t be clean until evening. Whoever someone who has a discharge touches, without having rinsed their hands in water, they’ll wash their clothes, and take a bath, and won’t be clean until evening. The earthen bowl, which someone who has a discharge touches, will be broken; and every bowl of wood will be rinsed in water. When whoever has a discharge is cleansed of their discharge, then after seven days they’ll be cleansed, and wash their clothes and take a bath in running water, and will be clean.
[14-18] On the eighth day take two doves, or two young pigeons, and come to Yahweh to the door of the Meeting Place, and give them to the priest: and the priest will offer them, the one for a sin offering, and the other for a burnt offering. The priest will cover their sins before Yahweh for their discharge. If any man has a release of semen, then they’ll take a bath in water, and won’t be clean until evening. All clothes and every part of the skin, where the semen touched, will be washed with water, and won’t be clean until evening. If a man has sex with a woman and there’s a release of semen, they’ll both take a bath in water, and won’t be clean until evening.
[19-24] If a woman has a discharge of a flow of blood from her body, she’ll be set apart for seven days: and whoever touches her won’t be clean until evening. Everything that she rests on or sits on while on her period will be unhealthy. Whoever touches her bed will wash their clothes, and take a bath, and won’t be clean until evening. Whoever touches anything that she sits on will wash their clothes, and take a bath, and won’t be clean until evening. If it’s on the bed, or on anything she sits on, when they touch it, they won’t be clean until evening. If any man has sex with her during her period, he’ll be unhealthy seven days; and every bed which he sleeps on will be unhealthy.
[25-28] If a woman has a discharge of blood that last for many days, but isn’t her period, or if she has a discharge that lasts longer than the time of her normal period, as long as the discharge lasts, she’ll be unhealthy as in the days of her period. Every bed she sleeps on as long as her discharge lasts, will be to her as the bed of her period, and everything she sits on will be unhealthy, as in her period. Whoever touches these things will be unhealthy, and will wash their clothes, and take a bath, and won’t be clean until evening. But if she’s through with her period, then after seven days, she’ll be clean.
[29-33] On the eighth day she’ll take two doves, or two young pigeons, and bring them to the priest, to the door of the Meeting Place. The priest will offer the first for a sin offering, and the other for a burnt offering; and the priest will cover her sins for her before Yahweh for being unhealthy on her period. So separate the children of Israel when they’re unhealthy, so they won’t die when they’re unhealthy, when they make my place of worship unhealthy that’s with them. This is the law of whoever has a discharge, and of whoever has a release of semen that makes them unhealthy; and of a woman, who has her period, and of a man or woman who has a discharge, and of whoever has sex with a woman, who is on her period.
Chapters 11-15
11[1-8] Yahweh told Moses and Aaron, “Tell the children of Israel, 'These are the living things which you may eat among all the animals that are on the earth. You may eat any animal that has a parted hoof, which is divided in two, and re-chews their food. But don’t eat of those that re-chew their food, or have parted hoofs like the camel, because they re-chew their food but don't have a parted hoof, so it’s unhealthy for you. The badger, because they re-chew their food but don't have a parted hoof, so it’s unhealthy for you. The rabbit, because they re-chew their food but don't have a parted hoof, so it’s unhealthy to you. The pig, because they’ve a parted hoof, which is divided in two, but they don't re-chew their food, so it’s unhealthy for you. Don’t eat their meat, and don’t touch their dead bodies because they’re unhealthy for you.
[9-12] You may eat anything in the waters that has fins and scales in the lakes, rivers, and seas. Count as garbage anything that doesn't have fins and scales in the rivers and seas, anything that moves of all the living creatures that are in the waters, and stay away from them. Don’t eat their meat, and stay away from their dead bodies. Whatever has no fins or scales in the waters is counted as garbage to you.
[13-19] Don’t eat these birds, but stay away from them and count them as garbage: any kind of eagle, vulture, buzzard, hawk, falcon, raven, male or female ostriches, cuckoo, or any kind of bird of prey, owl, seagull, ibis, pelican, bustard, stork, heron, desert lark, and bat.
[20-25] Count all flying insects that walk on all fours as garbage. Yet you may eat any winged insect that runs around on four feet, which has legs above their feet, and hops on the earth. You may eat any kind of locust, katydid, cricket, or grasshopper. But all winged insects that run around on four feet, count as garbage. You’ll become unhealthy if you eat them or touch their dead body and won’t be clean until evening. Whoever carries any part of their dead body will wash their clothes, and won’t be clean until evening.
[26-28] Every animal which has a parted foot that isn’t divided in two, nor re-chews their food, is unhealthy to you. Everyone who touches them will be unhealthy. Whatever runs on paws, among all animals that have four feet, they’re unhealthy to you. Whoever touches their dead body won’t be clean until evening. Whoever carries their dead body will wash their clothes, and won’t be clean until evening. They are unhealthy to you.
[29-38] These are what are unhealthy to you among the small animals that run around on the earth: the weasel, the rat, the mole or any of the rodents; frogs, toads, salamanders, turtles, crocodiles, and lizards, or any of the cold-blooded creatures. These are unhealthy to you among all the small creatures. Whoever touches their dead body won’t be clean until evening. On whatever any of them falls when it dies, it will be unhealthy; whether it’s a bowl of wood, clothing, skin, sack, or whatever it is that is used for work, it must be put into water, and it won’t be clean until evening. Every earthen bowl, into which any of them falls, and all that’s in it will be unhealthy, and you’ll break it. All food mixed with water will be unhealthy; and all drink that may be drunk in every such bowl will be unhealthy. Everywhere part of their dead body falls will be unhealthy; whether on oven, or stove to cook on, it will be broken in pieces because it’s unhealthy to you. Nevertheless a spring or a well in which water is a gathered will be clean: but whatever touches their dead body will be unhealthy. If part of their dead body falls on any seed which is to be planted, it’s clean. But if the seed is put in water to be eaten, and part of their dead body falls on it, it’s unhealthy to you.
[39-40] If any animal dies naturally, which you may eat; whoever touches its dead body won’t be clean until evening. Whoever eats of its dead body will wash their clothes, and won’t be clean until evening. And those who carry its dead body will wash their clothes, and won’t be clean until evening.
[41-43] Everything that crawls on the earth is counted as garbage. It won’t be eaten. Whatever crawls on its belly like a snake, and whatever has four feet like an insect, or whatever has many feet like a spider, every small thing that runs around on the earth, don’t eat them and count them as garbage. Don’t make yourselves filthy with anything that crawls, nor will you make yourselves unhealthy with them, so that you won’t be clean.
[44-47] I Am Yahweh your God. So set yourselves apart and be holy because I am holy: nor will you treat yourselves as common by eating anything that moves on the earth. I am Yahweh who brought you up out of the land of Egypt, to be your God. So be holy, because I am holy. This is the law of all the animals, birds, fish, and of everything that crawls on the earth, to make a difference between what’s unhealthy and what’s clean, and between what may and may not be eaten of all the living things.'”
12[1-5] Yahweh told Moses, “Tell the children of Israel, 'If a woman gets pregnant, and has a male child, then she’ll be unhealthy seven days; as in the days of her monthly period she’ll be unhealthy. In the eighth day the flesh of his foreskin will be cut off. She’ll continue bleeding for thirty-three days to be cleansed. She won’t touch anything holy, nor come into the place of worship, until the days of her cleansing are finished. But if she has a female child, then she’ll be unhealthy two weeks, as in her period; and she’ll continue bleeding for sixty-six days to be cleansed.
[6-8] When the days of her cleansing are finished, for a son, or a daughter, she’ll bring to the priest at the door of the Meeting Place, a year old lamb for a burnt offering, and a young pigeon or dove, for a sin offering and you’ll offer it to Yahweh, and cover her sins for her; and she’ll be cleansed from her bleeding. This is the law for a woman who has childbirth, whether a male or a female. If she can’t give a lamb, then she’ll take two doves, or two young pigeons; the one for a burnt offering, and the other for a sin offering: and the priest will cover her sins for her, and she’ll be clean.'”
13[1-4] Then Yahweh told Moses and Aaron, “When someone has a swelling, a scab, or a bright spot in their skin and it looks like a severe skin disease, then they’ll be brought to Aaron the priest, or to one of his sons the priests: and the priest will look at it: and if the hair has turned white in it, and the problem is deeper than the body's skin, it’s the disease of leprosy; and the priest will look at them, and say that they’re unhealthy. If the bright spot is white, and it isn't deeper than the skin, and the hair hasn't turned white, then the priest will separate the infected person for seven days.
[5-8] The priest will look at them on the seventh day, and if the priest thinks the problem is over, and hasn't spread in the skin, then the priest will separate them for seven more days. The priest will look at them again on the seventh day; and if the problem has faded, and hasn't spread in the skin, then the priest will say that they’re healthy. It’s a scab. They’ll wash their clothes, and are clean. But if the scab spreads on the skin, after they’ve shown it to the priest to see if their all right, they’ll show it to the priest again. The priest will look at them; and if the scab has spread on the skin, then the priest will say that they’re unhealthy. It’s a severe skin disease.
[9-13] When the disease of leprosy is in a human, then they’ll be brought to the priest; and the priest will look at them, and if there’s a white swelling in the skin, and it has turned the hair white, and there’s raw skin in the swelling, it’s a severe skin disease in their body, and the priest will say that they’re unhealthy. Don’t separate them, because they’re unhealthy. If the severe skin disease breaks out all over the skin, and it covers all the skin of the infected person from head to feet, as far as the priest can see; then the priest will look at them; and, if the severe skin disease has covered their whole body, the priest will say that they’re healed of the problem. It has all turned white, so they’re healthy.
[14-17] But whenever raw skin is seen in them, they’ll be unhealthy. The priest will look at the raw skin, and say that they’re unhealthy, because the raw skin is unhealthy. It’s severe skin disease. Or if the raw skin changes again, and becomes white, then they’ll come to the priest; and the priest will look at them; and, if the problem has turned white, then the priest will say that they’re healed of the problem. They’re healthy.
[18-23] When the body has a swelling on its skin, and it has healed, and in the place of the swelling there’s a white growth, or a bright pink spot, then it will be shown to the priest; and the priest will look at it; and if it looks deeper than the skin, and the hair has turned white, then the priest will say that they’re unhealthy. It’s the disease of leprosy. It has broken out in the swelling. But if the priest looks at it, and there are no white hairs in it, and it isn't deeper than the skin, but is dull, then the priest will separate them seven days. If it spreads in the skin, then the priest will say that they’re unhealthy. It’s a problem. But if the bright spot stays there, and hasn't spread, It’s the scar from the swelling; and the priest will say that they’re clean.
[24-28] Or when the body has a burn from fire on its skin, and the raw skin of the burn becomes a bright spot, pink, or white, then the priest will look at it; and if the hair in the bright spot has turned white, and it looks deeper than the skin; it’s a severe skin disease. It has broken out in the burn, and the priest will say that they’re unhealthy. It’s the disease of leprosy. But if the priest looks at it, and there’s no white hair in the bright spot, and it isn't deeper than the skin, but is faded; then the priest will separate them seven days. The priest will look at them on the seventh day. If it has spread in the skin, then the priest will say that they’re unhealthy. It’s the disease of leprosy. If the bright spot stays there, and hasn't spread in the skin, but is faded, it’s the swelling from the burn, and the priest will say that they’re clean; it’s the scar from the burn.
[29-37] When a man or woman has a problem on the head or on the beard, then the priest will look at the problem; and if it looks deeper than the skin, and the hair in it is yellow and thin, then the priest will say that they’re unhealthy: It’s an itch, a severe skin disease of the head or the beard. If the priest looks at the problem of itching, and it isn't deeper than the skin, and there’s no black hair in it, then the priest will separate the person infected with itching seven days. On the seventh day the priest will look at the problem; and if the itch hasn't spread, and there’s no yellow hair in it, and the itch isn't deeper than the skin, then they’ll be shaved, but don’t shave the itch; and the priest will separate whoever has the itch seven more days. On the seventh day, the priest will look at the itch; and if the itch hasn't spread in the skin, and it isn't deeper than the skin, then the priest will say that they’re healthy. They’ll wash their clothes, and are clean. But if the itch spreads in the skin after their healed, then the priest will look at them; and if the itch has spread in the skin, the priest won’t look for the yellow hair; they’re unhealthy. But if the priest thinks the itch is healed, and black hair has grown in it; the itch is healed, and they’re healthy. The priest will say that they’re healthy.
[38-39] When a man or a woman has bright spots in their skin, white looking; then the priest will look at them; and if the bright spots on their skin are a dull white, it’s a harmless rash, it has broken out in the skin; they’re healthy.
[40-44] If a man's hair has fallen from his head, he’s bald. He’s healthy. If his hair has fallen from the front part of his head, he’s forehead bald. He’s healthy. But if there’s a pink spot in the bald head, or forehead; it’s a severe skin disease breaking out in your bald head, or forehead. Then the priest will look at it; and if the pink spot is swelling in your bald head, or forehead, and looks like a severe skin disease, he has a severe skin disease. He’s unhealthy. The priest will say that they’re unhealthy. His problem is on the head.
[45-46] The one who has the problem will wear torn clothes, and their hair will hang loose. They’ll cup their hands around their mouth, and will call out, 'Unhealthy! Unhealthy!' How ever long the problem is in them they’ll be unhealthy. They’re unhealthy and will live alone, outside of the camp.
[47-51] The clothes also that the disease of leprosy is in, whether it’s woolen clothes, or linen clothes; whether it’s in the thread of a woven cloth; of linen, or of wool; whether in a piece of leather, or in anything made of leather; if the problem is greenish or reddish in the clothes, or in the leather, or in the threads of a woven cloth, or in anything made of leather; it’s the disease of leprosy, and will be shown to the priest. The priest will look at it, and separate it for seven days. They’ll look at the problem on the seventh day. If the problem has spread in the clothes, in the threads of the woven cloth or in the leather, whatever it’s used for, the problem is a harmful mildew. It’s unhealthy.
[52-55] Burn the clothes, whether it’s in the threads of a woven cloth, in wool or in linen, or anything of leather that has the problem, because it’s a harmful mildew. Burn it in the fire. If the priest looks at it, and the problem hasn't spread in the clothes, in the threads of the woven cloth or in any part of the leather; then the priest will say to wash whatever has the problem, and you’ll keep it separated seven more days. Then the priest will look at it, after the problem is washed; and if the problem hasn't changed its color, and the problem hasn't spread, it’s unhealthy; burn it in the fire. It’s a mildfemaled spot, whether the problem is inside or outside.
[56-59] If the priest looks, and the problem has faded after it’s washed, then you’ll tear it out of the clothes, or out of the leather, or out of the threads of a woven cloth: and if it’s seen again in the clothes, in the threads of the woven cloth or in anything of leather, it’s spreading. Burn whatever has the problem with fire. The clothes, either a woven cloth, or whatever is made of leather, will be washed, and if the problem has gone from it, then it will be washed again, and it will be clean. This is the law of the problem of mildew in clothes of wool or linen, either in a woven cloth, or in anything made of leather, to tell whether it’s healthy or unhealthy.
14[1-7] Yahweh told Moses, “This will be the law of the leper in the day of cleansing. They’ll be brought to the priest, and the priest will go out of the camp. The priest will look at them, and if the disease of leprosy is healed in the leper, then the priest will tell them to take two living clean birds, and cedar wood, and scarlet, and a a hyssop branch branch for whoever is to be cleansed. The priest will tell them to kill one of the birds in an earthen bowl over running water. As for the living bird, you’ll take it, and the cedar wood, and the scarlet, and the a hyssop branch branch, and will dip them and the living bird in the blood of the bird that was killed over the running water. You’ll sprinkle on whoever is to be cleansed from the severe skin disease seven times, and will say that they’re healthy, and will let the living bird go into the open field.
[8-9] Whoever is to be cleansed will wash their clothes, and shave off all their hair, and take a bath in water; and they’ll be clean. After that they’ll come into the camp, but will live outside their tent seven days. On the seventh day, they’ll shave all their hair off, with the beard and eyebrows, all the hair they’ll shave off. They’ll wash their clothes, and take a bath, then they’ll be clean.
[10-18] On the eighth day they’ll take two male lambs without anything wrong with them, and one female lamb a year old without anything wrong with it, and thirty percent of a 3-quart jar of fine flour for a grain offering, mingled with oil, and a half quart of oil. The priest who cleanses them will set whoever is to be cleansed, and those things, before Yahweh, at the door of the Meeting Place. The priest will take one of the male lambs, and offer it for a guilt offering, with the half quart of oil, and wave them for a wave offering to Yahweh. The priest will kill the male lamb in the place where they kill the sin offering and the burnt offering, in the place of worship; for as the sin offering is the priest's, so is the guilt offering. It’s most holy. The priest will take some of the blood of the guilt offering and put it on the tip of the right ear of whoever is to be cleansed, and on the thumb of their right hand, and on the big toe of their right foot. The priest will take some of the half quart of oil, and pour it into the palm of his own left hand and dip his right finger in it, and sprinkle it with his finger seven times before Yahweh. The priest will put some of the rest of the oil that’s in his hand on the tip of the right ear of whoever is to be cleansed, and on the thumb of the right hand, and on the big toe of the right foot, on the blood of the guilt offering. The rest of the oil that’s in the priest's hand will be put on the head of whoever is to be cleansed, and the priest will cover their sins before Yahweh.
[19-22] The priest will offer the sin offering, and cover the sins of whoever is to be cleansed because of their being unhealthy: and afterward will kill the burnt offering and offer the burnt offering and the grain offering on the altar. The priest will cover their sins, and they’ll be clean. If they’re poor, and can't give so much, then they’ll take one male lamb for a guilt offering to be waved, to cover their sins, and ten percent of a 3-quart jar of fine flour mingled with oil for a grain offering, and a half quart of oil; and two doves, or two young pigeons, whatever they’re able to give; and the one will be a sin offering, and the other a burnt offering.
[23-29] On the eighth day bring them for their cleansing to the priest, to the door of the Meeting Place, to Yahweh. The priest will take the lamb of the guilt offering, and the half quart of oil, and the priest will wave them for a wave offering to Yahweh. Kill the lamb of the guilt offering and take some of the blood of the guilt offering and put it on the tip of the right ear of whoever is to be cleansed, and on the thumb of the right hand, and on the big toe of the right foot. The priest will pour some of the oil into the palm of his own left hand and sprinkle with the right finger some of it seven times before Yahweh. Then the priest will put some of the oil that’s in his hand on the tip of the right ear of whoever is to be cleansed, and on the thumb of the right hand, and on the big toe of the right foot, where the blood of the guilt offering is. The rest of the oil that’s in the priest's hand put on the head of whoever is to be cleansed, to cover their sins before Yahweh.
[30-32] They’ll offer one of the doves, or of the young pigeons, whatever they’re able to give. Offer whatever they’re able to give, the first for a sin offering, and the other for a burnt offering, with the grain offering. The priest will cover their sins for whoever is to be cleansed before Yahweh. This is the law for those who have the disease of leprosy, who aren’t able to give the sacrifice for their cleansing.”
[33-38] Yahweh told Moses and Aaron, “When you have come into the land of Canaan, which I Am giving to you to own, and I put a spreading mildew in a house in your land, then whoever owns the house will come and tell the priest, 'There seems to me to be some sort of problem in the house.' The priest will tell them to empty the house, before the priest goes in to look at the problem, so that all that’s in the house won’t be ruined and then the priest will go in to look at the house. The priest will look at the problem; and if the problem is ingrained in the walls of the house with green or red streaks, and it seems to go into the wall; then the priest will go outside of the house, and shut the door of the house seven days.
[39-44]Then the priest will come again on the seventh day, and look at it again. If the problem has spread in the walls of the house, then the priest will tell them to take out the stones where the problem is, and throw them outside of the city in a place for things that are unhealthy and to scrape all around the inside of the house, and pour out the mortar, that they scraped off, outside of the city into a place for things that are unhealthy. Then they’ll take other stones, and put them in place of those stones; and take other mortar, and plaster the house again. If the problem comes again, and breaks out in the house, after they’ve taken out the stones, and scraped the house, and after it was plastered; then the priest will come in and look; and if the problem has spread in the house, it’s a harmful mildew in the house. It’s unhealthy.
[45-48] They’ll break down the house, its stones, timber, and mortar, and carry them out of the city into a place for things that are unhealthy. And whoever goes into the house while it’s shut up won’t be clean until evening. Whoever has slept or eaten in the house will wash their clothes. If the priest comes in, and looks at it, and the problem hasn't spread in the house, after the house was plastered, then the priest will say that the house clean, because the problem is gone.
[49-53] To cleanse the house take two birds, and cedar wood, and scarlet, and a hyssop branch. Kill one of the birds in an earthen bowl over running water. Take the cedar wood, and the hyssop branch branch, and the scarlet, and the living bird, and dip them in the blood of the bird that was killed, and in the running water, and sprinkle the house seven times. Cleanse the house with the blood of the bird, and with the running water, with the living bird, with the cedar wood, with the hyssop branch, and with the scarlet; but let the living bird go out of the city into the open field. So the problem for the house will be covered; and it will be clean.”
[54-57] This is the law for any problem of a severe skin disease, for an itch, for the harmful mildew of clothes or a house, or for a swelling, a scab, or a bright spot; to teach when it’s unhealthy, and when it’s clean. This is the law of leprosy.
15[1-7] Yahweh told Moses and Aaron, “Tell the children of Israel, 'When any man has a discharge from their body, because of the discharge they’re unhealthy. Someone is unhealthy with a discharge when their body runs with a discharge, or their body has stopped from a discharge. Every bed that someone has slept on who has a discharge will be unhealthy; and everything they sit on will be unhealthy. Whoever touches their bed will wash their clothes, and take a bath, and won’t be clean until evening. Whoever sits on anything where someone has a discharge has sat will wash their clothes, and take a bath, and won’t be clean until evening. Whoever touches the body of someone with a discharge will wash their clothes, and take a bath, and won’t be clean until evening.
[8-13] If whoever has a discharge spits on someone who is healthy, then they’ll wash their clothes, and take a bath, and won’t be clean until evening. Whatever saddle someone who has a discharge rides on will be unhealthy. Whoever touches anything that was under them won’t be clean until evening. Whoever carries those things will wash their clothes, and take a bath, and won’t be clean until evening. Whoever someone who has a discharge touches, without having rinsed their hands in water, they’ll wash their clothes, and take a bath, and won’t be clean until evening. The earthen bowl, which someone who has a discharge touches, will be broken; and every bowl of wood will be rinsed in water. When whoever has a discharge is cleansed of their discharge, then after seven days they’ll be cleansed, and wash their clothes and take a bath in running water, and will be clean.
[14-18] On the eighth day take two doves, or two young pigeons, and come to Yahweh to the door of the Meeting Place, and give them to the priest: and the priest will offer them, the one for a sin offering, and the other for a burnt offering. The priest will cover their sins before Yahweh for their discharge. If any man has a release of semen, then they’ll take a bath in water, and won’t be clean until evening. All clothes and every part of the skin, where the semen touched, will be washed with water, and won’t be clean until evening. If a man has sex with a woman and there’s a release of semen, they’ll both take a bath in water, and won’t be clean until evening.
[19-24] If a woman has a discharge of a flow of blood from her body, she’ll be set apart for seven days: and whoever touches her won’t be clean until evening. Everything that she rests on or sits on while on her period will be unhealthy. Whoever touches her bed will wash their clothes, and take a bath, and won’t be clean until evening. Whoever touches anything that she sits on will wash their clothes, and take a bath, and won’t be clean until evening. If it’s on the bed, or on anything she sits on, when they touch it, they won’t be clean until evening. If any man has sex with her during her period, he’ll be unhealthy seven days; and every bed which he sleeps on will be unhealthy.
[25-28] If a woman has a discharge of blood that last for many days, but isn’t her period, or if she has a discharge that lasts longer than the time of her normal period, as long as the discharge lasts, she’ll be unhealthy as in the days of her period. Every bed she sleeps on as long as her discharge lasts, will be to her as the bed of her period, and everything she sits on will be unhealthy, as in her period. Whoever touches these things will be unhealthy, and will wash their clothes, and take a bath, and won’t be clean until evening. But if she’s through with her period, then after seven days, she’ll be clean.
[29-33] On the eighth day she’ll take two doves, or two young pigeons, and bring them to the priest, to the door of the Meeting Place. The priest will offer the first for a sin offering, and the other for a burnt offering; and the priest will cover her sins for her before Yahweh for being unhealthy on her period. So separate the children of Israel when they’re unhealthy, so they won’t die when they’re unhealthy, when they make my place of worship unhealthy that’s with them. This is the law of whoever has a discharge, and of whoever has a release of semen that makes them unhealthy; and of a woman, who has her period, and of a man or woman who has a discharge, and of whoever has sex with a woman, who is on her period.

Counselors’ Corner
Well June is here and father’s day is just around the corner. I thank God for my father, who always provided for our needs, though he is now gone on to be with Jesus. I pray that God helps me to provide for the two children who live with me, like my father tried to do for us. I receive very little support from their father, who I am separated from. He does on occasion buy us a few groceries or put some gas in the car, but not so often I can depend on it. Since we are not legally separated, he doesn’t have to give me anything, as far as child support. But I pray that God will convict him to help us more, at least until I can get some income coming in. I sometimes feel like everything depends on me, but then God does something wonderful, like running me into an old friend who gave me a hundred dollars unexpectedly. I haven’t seen her in ten years, but I was telling her that I had graduated but had been unable to find work. I was writing her phone number down in my wallet and she just plopped a hundred dollar bill down in my wallet, Praise God!!!!!!
God hasn’t let us go hungry yet, though we been too close for my comfort a few times.
My garden is doing well this year. I have harvested green onions, a few asparagus tips, a bunch of squash, a few zucchini, some salad greens, and mustard greens. I am just beginning to get some cucumbers, and my tomatoes aren’t quite ripe yet. I’ve actually got corn this year! I’ve picked three small ones so far. I’ve just pulled up all the mustards that went to seed and have replanted those squares with peppers and carrots. My gape vine has baby green grapes, so maybe we’ll get a few grapes this year. I hope so because the kids love them. Something ate them last year. We picked blackberries enough to make eight jars of jelly, too. The blue berries will soon be ripe and we may get a few figs this year. Katrina almost destroyed the fig tree, and we haven’t got any figs for the last few years, but it’s coming back now. Needless to say, God has promised that we won’t go hungry and I’ve done as much as I can to see that doesn’t happen. I may have to learn to not eat very much meat though because I lost all my chickens.
I’ve been working on the OLD Testament for my paraphrase, but I would sometimes do other things in my day first and not get to it consistently. So I realized that every time I didn’t work on it first in my day, one of the chickens would get out of the fence and the dogs would get it. Needless to say, I have a hard head and lost all twelve chickens before I got what the Lord was trying to teach me - to put God’s work first and then do my other work. But God is good and the lesson was learned, though I have no chickens left. The Lord gives and the Lord takes away, blessed be the name of the Lord! Praise Yahweh! I’ve been grumbling and complaining like the children of Israel and worried about where our next meal was coming from instead of letting God take care of it. And then God just does something so wonderful and merciful, like give me a hundred dollars, I wasn’t expecting! That’ll help with next months light bill. God is so good! Last months bill got paid too by the grace of God! My daughter, Rose, chipped in and paid more than half the bill. I make about a hundred dollars a month mowing Mama’s yard and cleaning her house, so if we don’t run the air, I think I can keep the bill paid, at least for the summer. But when it’s tough, God always comes through!
God just keeps blessing and blessing! I’m expecting my first grandbaby, now, so I’m really excited about that! I can’t wait! We need maternity clothes for Amanda, if anyone has any small size maternity clothes. She only has one outfit that I bought her, and one more that someone gave her. A couple of more would really help out. Just let me know if you have some you can spare. She’s having an ultrasound in a couple of weeks, so I can’t wait to see the pictures. I pray for a healthy baby and a strong Mama! Speaking of Mama’s, mother’s day was in May, and I got the biggest blessing I’ve had in a long time. Rocky actually bought me a bunch of Roses, some chocolates, and a beautiful card. You have to understand this is not something he does. This was a real shock to me, but that’s not the best part. He actually told me how blessed he was for me to have given him our eight children. He said that he thanked God for all of them, even when it’s been tough. I’ve waited for that one for 29 years!!!!!!! I’ve often felt like Leah, in the Bible, thinking, “Now that I’ve given him 4 sons, he will love me!” God has truly answered my prayer!
I have also been fervently working on my website for my Go Fish Christian Books. It’s now online and I would really appreciate any purchases. I can only take credit cards through PayPal at this time, but I can also take checks, if you want to send one. Please take a look at it again as I now have over 150 books listed. The categories are located at the bottom right of the page and featured books are on the bottom left. I have no other income at this time so please help me out if you can. Please pray that this is successful. Our livelihood depends on it. I have no other options at this time as I still have not found employment. Please forward this link to any and all who may be interested, as well. Please let me know if you have any problems with the website. I do also have some Manx kittens for sale if anyone wants one. I’d like to get a hundred each for them, but I’ll take whatever you can afford to pay if you really want one. Well, that’s all for now, so God bless to all and go fish for Jesus!

Notes and Prayer Requests
• Several people that I have met as of late have had to leave their husbands because they found out their husbands were molesting their children. This is in epidemic proportions. Please pray for these unnamed families. And pray that I can minister to these broken hearted ladies.
• Pray for Amanda and my first grandbaby that she is carrying!
• I am a Christian Counselor and would be willing to provide services to those in need. I have a master’s degree in Psychological Counseling and am an ordained Minister as well. Please pray that I may be useful to God’s kingdom. I can also mow yards, clean houses or anything else that needs doing. I charge $50 for a yard or 3 BR house. You provide the equipment.
• I have published all of my New Testament paraphrases on the Triond website. The links are listed below in several Daily Bible Reading Plans, if anyone wants to check them out. I have now published all of the New Testament, the Proverbs, and the Psalms online. You can see all of my writings by going to my main Triond link at https://www.triond.com/users/Mama+Heartfilled
• I’ve also began to publish my working drafts of the Old testament on my Blogspot. I’ve done Genesis and Exodus and am now working on Levitcus. It’s Go Fish Ministries at Blogspot.
• I would appreciate if you’d let me know of grammar, punctuation, and other mistakes I may have made. My goal is to make the paraphrase as simple and clear as possible. I know they still need much work, as they are drafts of a work in progress. I don’t know of any other Bible that uses the Name of Yahweh (I am in Hebrew), so I have worked hard to get it right. Please pray that God helps me in this work, and let me know of any mistakes you find. Thank all of you who are praying for me on this.
Daily Bible Reading Plans for the New Word, The Old Sayings, and The Old Hymns
The New Word, The Old Sayings and The Old Hymns is a unique feminist approach to a gender-neutral paraphrase of the Holy Bible, which uses the true name of Yahweh God and of Yeshua, the Christ, rather than the traditional man made form of Jehovah. I attempted this several year project out of a strong desire to make known the true name of Yahweh God and to help complete the great commission of Jesus Christ. It is the first Bible to my knowledge that uses the Name of God in its proper form, which had fallen out of use because of the Hebraic tradition to not say it at all by replacing it with Lord (Adoni) or God (Elohim), for fear of using it in vain. Yahweh, in the Hebrew, simply means I AM. Yahweh God is the great I AM!
This paraphrase is a working draft, and these are the published excerpts in the completed series. This version is particularly intended to reach an audience on the internet, that may not just go pick up a Bible and read it. I would like to encourage Christians and non-Christians alike to read through them using one of the suggested reading plans below and comment on them, whether you have a critique, editing correction, or praise. I am particularly looking for clarity of ideas, and simplicity for a younger or less educated audiences, which may have trouble reading and understanding some of the other more traditional versions. Archaic language, has been replaced by more modern readings of the ideas presented in the KJV. If you find a section that is still somewhat difficult to read, or understand, please let me know your thoughts on it. I would like to make all the corrections necessary before attempting further publication and dissemination. I am asking for the Triond community and other readers to help me find any significant errors, and check for readability.
Sincerely Yours,
Sis. Kimberly M. Hartfield

Counselors’ Corner
Well June is here and father’s day is just around the corner. I thank God for my father, who always provided for our needs, though he is now gone on to be with Jesus. I pray that God helps me to provide for the two children who live with me, like my father tried to do for us. I receive very little support from their father, who I am separated from. He does on occasion buy us a few groceries or put some gas in the car, but not so often I can depend on it. Since we are not legally separated, he doesn’t have to give me anything, as far as child support. But I pray that God will convict him to help us more, at least until I can get some income coming in. I sometimes feel like everything depends on me, but then God does something wonderful, like running me into an old friend who gave me a hundred dollars unexpectedly. I haven’t seen her in ten years, but I was telling her that I had graduated but had been unable to find work. I was writing her phone number down in my wallet and she just plopped a hundred dollar bill down in my wallet, Praise God!!!!!!
God hasn’t let us go hungry yet, though we been too close for my comfort a few times.
My garden is doing well this year. I have harvested green onions, a few asparagus tips, a bunch of squash, a few zucchini, some salad greens, and mustard greens. I am just beginning to get some cucumbers, and my tomatoes aren’t quite ripe yet. I’ve actually got corn this year! I’ve picked three small ones so far. I’ve just pulled up all the mustards that went to seed and have replanted those squares with peppers and carrots. My gape vine has baby green grapes, so maybe we’ll get a few grapes this year. I hope so because the kids love them. Something ate them last year. We picked blackberries enough to make eight jars of jelly, too. The blue berries will soon be ripe and we may get a few figs this year. Katrina almost destroyed the fig tree, and we haven’t got any figs for the last few years, but it’s coming back now. Needless to say, God has promised that we won’t go hungry and I’ve done as much as I can to see that doesn’t happen. I may have to learn to not eat very much meat though because I lost all my chickens.
I’ve been working on the OLD Testament for my paraphrase, but I would sometimes do other things in my day first and not get to it consistently. So I realized that every time I didn’t work on it first in my day, one of the chickens would get out of the fence and the dogs would get it. Needless to say, I have a hard head and lost all twelve chickens before I got what the Lord was trying to teach me - to put God’s work first and then do my other work. But God is good and the lesson was learned, though I have no chickens left. The Lord gives and the Lord takes away, blessed be the name of the Lord! Praise Yahweh! I’ve been grumbling and complaining like the children of Israel and worried about where our next meal was coming from instead of letting God take care of it. And then God just does something so wonderful and merciful, like give me a hundred dollars, I wasn’t expecting! That’ll help with next months light bill. God is so good! Last months bill got paid too by the grace of God! My daughter, Rose, chipped in and paid more than half the bill. I make about a hundred dollars a month mowing Mama’s yard and cleaning her house, so if we don’t run the air, I think I can keep the bill paid, at least for the summer. But when it’s tough, God always comes through!
God just keeps blessing and blessing! I’m expecting my first grandbaby, now, so I’m really excited about that! I can’t wait! We need maternity clothes for Amanda, if anyone has any small size maternity clothes. She only has one outfit that I bought her, and one more that someone gave her. A couple of more would really help out. Just let me know if you have some you can spare. She’s having an ultrasound in a couple of weeks, so I can’t wait to see the pictures. I pray for a healthy baby and a strong Mama! Speaking of Mama’s, mother’s day was in May, and I got the biggest blessing I’ve had in a long time. Rocky actually bought me a bunch of Roses, some chocolates, and a beautiful card. You have to understand this is not something he does. This was a real shock to me, but that’s not the best part. He actually told me how blessed he was for me to have given him our eight children. He said that he thanked God for all of them, even when it’s been tough. I’ve waited for that one for 29 years!!!!!!! I’ve often felt like Leah, in the Bible, thinking, “Now that I’ve given him 4 sons, he will love me!” God has truly answered my prayer!
I have also been fervently working on my website for my Go Fish Christian Books. It’s now online and I would really appreciate any purchases. I can only take credit cards through PayPal at this time, but I can also take checks, if you want to send one. Please take a look at it again as I now have over 150 books listed. The categories are located at the bottom right of the page and featured books are on the bottom left. I have no other income at this time so please help me out if you can. Please pray that this is successful. Our livelihood depends on it. I have no other options at this time as I still have not found employment. Please forward this link to any and all who may be interested, as well. Please let me know if you have any problems with the website. I do also have some Manx kittens for sale if anyone wants one. I’d like to get a hundred each for them, but I’ll take whatever you can afford to pay if you really want one. Well, that’s all for now, so God bless to all and go fish for Jesus!

Notes and Prayer Requests
• Several people that I have met as of late have had to leave their husbands because they found out their husbands were molesting their children. This is in epidemic proportions. Please pray for these unnamed families. And pray that I can minister to these broken hearted ladies.
• Pray for Amanda and my first grandbaby that she is carrying!
• I am a Christian Counselor and would be willing to provide services to those in need. I have a master’s degree in Psychological Counseling and am an ordained Minister as well. Please pray that I may be useful to God’s kingdom. I can also mow yards, clean houses or anything else that needs doing. I charge $50 for a yard or 3 BR house. You provide the equipment.
• I have published all of my New Testament paraphrases on the Triond website. The links are listed below in several Daily Bible Reading Plans, if anyone wants to check them out. I have now published all of the New Testament, the Proverbs, and the Psalms online. You can see all of my writings by going to my main Triond link at https://www.triond.com/users/Mama+Heartfilled
• I’ve also began to publish my working drafts of the Old testament on my Blogspot. I’ve done Genesis and Exodus and am now working on Levitcus. It’s Go Fish Ministries at Blogspot.
• I would appreciate if you’d let me know of grammar, punctuation, and other mistakes I may have made. My goal is to make the paraphrase as simple and clear as possible. I know they still need much work, as they are drafts of a work in progress. I don’t know of any other Bible that uses the Name of Yahweh (I am in Hebrew), so I have worked hard to get it right. Please pray that God helps me in this work, and let me know of any mistakes you find. Thank all of you who are praying for me on this.
Daily Bible Reading Plans for the New Word, The Old Sayings, and The Old Hymns
The New Word, The Old Sayings and The Old Hymns is a unique feminist approach to a gender-neutral paraphrase of the Holy Bible, which uses the true name of Yahweh God and of Yeshua, the Christ, rather than the traditional man made form of Jehovah. I attempted this several year project out of a strong desire to make known the true name of Yahweh God and to help complete the great commission of Jesus Christ. It is the first Bible to my knowledge that uses the Name of God in its proper form, which had fallen out of use because of the Hebraic tradition to not say it at all by replacing it with Lord (Adoni) or God (Elohim), for fear of using it in vain. Yahweh, in the Hebrew, simply means I AM. Yahweh God is the great I AM!
This paraphrase is a working draft, and these are the published excerpts in the completed series. This version is particularly intended to reach an audience on the internet, that may not just go pick up a Bible and read it. I would like to encourage Christians and non-Christians alike to read through them using one of the suggested reading plans below and comment on them, whether you have a critique, editing correction, or praise. I am particularly looking for clarity of ideas, and simplicity for a younger or less educated audiences, which may have trouble reading and understanding some of the other more traditional versions. Archaic language, has been replaced by more modern readings of the ideas presented in the KJV. If you find a section that is still somewhat difficult to read, or understand, please let me know your thoughts on it. I would like to make all the corrections necessary before attempting further publication and dissemination. I am asking for the Triond community and other readers to help me find any significant errors, and check for readability.
Sincerely Yours,
Sis. Kimberly M. Hartfield
B.S., M.S. - Christian Counselor, Ordained Minister
